It could be when saving that you need to check if it's being saved as a jpeg, gif, png or other. If not saved as 'optimized', the graininess effect can happen.

If anyone else has any other input on this please feel free to add to my comments! Or correct me if I'm mistaken!

I find personally that PNG is the best.

Thanks for the link!

When you're saving an icon, don't you have a preview of what it will look like?

If not, check your preferences to see if you can view a preview, because the graininess does change depending on what type you save it, jpeg, gif etc..

If your in Photoshop maybe your not saving them at maximum quality, I'll post a screen dump:



See it should be at maximum, if it's not that then I'm not sure, maybe try them as a PNG
