Clemens, sounds good!

I haven't tried it, but have you turned on antialiasing when generating 
the pngs? I turned on antialiasing for the schematic editor in my 
qucs_namespace branch and everything looks much nicer. For the 
schematics this was done with

p->setRenderHint(QPainter::Antialiasing, true);

where p is a pointer to a QPainter
