I made an icon(with different sizes) to work with Vista. The only problem is it looks fuzzy when put on the desktop. Everywhere else looks great! What am I doing wrong? wrong size? Wrong setting? :stare:

I have  
256x256  
128x128  
64x64  
48x48  
32x32  
24x24  
16x16

You mind sharing the icon so we can see what your talking about? I’ve made a couple of icons and never had this happen.

Sorry, the client does not allow any of the stuff I make for them to be showed to anyone. I could make you another one but is made the same way?

Look smooth to me all the edges and everything. At all resolutions it looks perfect.

Hmm… I even inspected the image. At what resolution does it look blury on your desktop?
