Pixilation usually occurs when you are looking at a pic who's resolution is much less than that of the screen resolution and you have chosen to view the pic at "full screen size". Kinda like writing on a balloon, then inflating it. The mark becomes stretched.

For instance, setting a screen res of 1024*768, and using a 1280*1024 pic as your background looks sharp, some edges may get cut off...but it's clear. But, if you chose to use an 800*600 pic...you will get a stretched/pixilated background. More so if your pic res was 640*480..etc.

Do your desktop icons look the same?
