educational value (and it gave me a chance to refresh my Deutsch).

the solution:
* produce two versions of the same image with ImageMagick, one at
quality 100 and the other at quality 60
* use jpegtran to crop the q60, shaving off 8 pixels on each side
* use jpegtran to merge the q60 on top of the q100
* use jpegtran to merge to a stripe
