Personally I prefer having the option "-f" in my master povray.ini
(~/.povrayrc in unix), which means that no image file is written.
When I want the image file, I simply write "+fn" (for png output) in
the command line (field, if in windows).

  (You might ask why? Well, 99.5% of the renders I do are test renders, not
final renders. What do I need the image file for?
  Besides, it saves lots of disk space when I render scenes from here and
there (eg. the example scenes which come with povray).)
