also had a question..I'm a noob at making icons (XD), but how do you avoid the horrible..compression (how to keep the image clearer looking) when you upload pictures? Mine turn out quite grainy after uploading. ^^;

Forgive me for butting in, but perhaps you save it in a certain file extension? o.o;
