<div>well the way to test would be to do the 3600 sample render
and compare the results. you can do a convert to grayscale then

<div>I suspect the 3600 sample image will be superior. should be

<div> Yes, that's what Jordan suggested. :)<br>
This makes sense and also gives better results.<br>
<br>
I hope we will get a better solution though, a good merging
system would be awesome. :) <br>

If the second image was in the second input, shouldn't
you set the Factor to 0.66? :)<br>
