Your JPG compression is disturbing it quite a bit apparently, and sure
its nice to have the thin lines of pages in a book or also roll of tape
as in this case but the problems with vignetting increase. Looks like
you made a good attempt at keeping the tape from being too small though.
Takes a bit of adjustment but if you use a Antialias_Depth, or +R, to
greater than the default of 3 you can increase the chances of seeing
finer lines without too much disturbance. Though of course the trade-off
is a slower render.
Sometimes a higher Antialias_Threshold can be better too, but jaggies
develop. Also, maybe set Jitter=0.0 or +J0.0 but then all this depends
upon each individual scene.
Anyhow, I still like the picture. My only complaint is the desktop wood
texture, but then these are always the sort of thing to comment about.
