jpg compression for thumnails in TXP

Hi,
I have been looking around the forum but cant find a topic on this issue.
I am creating my portfolio website, wich is image heavy, and the thumbnail creator in TXP compresses them too much.
I need a better quality JPG for my thumbnails, is there a way to chenge the compression in TXP???
Thanks!

As variant – you can use batch upload of full images using fpx_image_import without creating tnumbnail. And then upload thumbnails created yourself with desirable parameters. Is full img name is 14.jpg thumbnail will have name 14t.jpg

Thanks!
I forgot to mention, that yes, i Know there is that option, but changing the image compression will save me a lot of time.

In /textpattern/lib/class.thumb.php, the quality (0-100) is set to 80 on line 72:

$this->quality = 80;

You can edit the file and increase that value.
