[SOLVED] Blurry loadingscreen title

Why is the Sandbox title (look under data/loadingscreen, it's title.png) always so blurry? I've tried modifying it, and my new version has a doubled size and increased ppi ratio, but looks even worse. The original looks quite ugly as well (which it did before I made a new title). Can someone (I'm really thinking Hirato here) help me understand this?

BUMP!

Since I just edited this today, and it was originally made in November of 2010, I'm bumping this so hopefully some people can see this. And maybe provide a solution.

in short, your GPU or drivers suck and sandbox has automatically set maxtexsize to 256 to accommodate it.
If you want, change the value of maxtexsize to something much higher or to 0 and it should remove/reduce the blurriness, assuming the hardware allows a texsize above 256.

alright, thanks... just one thing.

did you just say that an image is rendered as text? Weird.

EDIT: now that that's done, I've gotta say... that looks incredible. Thanks again.

I would rather say Hirato meant texture... Seems a bit more realistic, but that's just me.
