You need to change the dithering quality, I am starting to think removing this
from the GUI preferences was a mistake, or the default should be changed to
'best'.


When GQview is not running, edit $HOME/.gqview/gqviewrc and change the
dither_quality to 2:

  dither_quality: 2

valid values are 0 (none), 1 (normal), 2 (best)
