Ah, thanks! I had to get really close to the screen to notice the texture, but now that I've messed with my monitor a bit, it really shows. Ugh. Is it mostly the top row for you, or do they all look like that?

Thanks, I'm going to try to break photoshop over my knee now. .___.

The bottom row is significantly less grainy than the top row, I think!

And my advice is to look up some icon making tutorials, to show you how to play with layers.

Derp, and I made those months ago. I need to know what I was on. I looked over the files and I think part of the problem is how I saved the icons. The base screencaps I used were grainy, but not nearly that grainy!

Thank you so much! I knew my friends were lying when they said they were 'perfect'. xD
