I upload a pic, pay "good money" to have it accessable in game as a texture. I spend a lot of time in photoshop to make sure that my texture is clean and sharp, at a useable resolution... like 512x512 or whatever...
Pic uploads fine, no problems there. I open it, it looks sharp and clean. I stick it on an object.. again it looks fine. Stick it in my profile.. no problems.
Now.. I close the profile, or delete that object.. and either reopen the profile, or stick that texture on another prim.. and blammo, it seems to be smudgey, and about half the resolution as the original..
What's HAPPENING here? And how can I stop it?

Winter, we did have texture issues resolved yesterday during a rolling update but that was mainly for "MISSING IMAGE" and gray avatar problems, details here:
http://blog.secondlife.com/2006/09/21/rolling-update-4pm-to-8pm-slt-92106/ I'm going to move this to Technical Issues, if this is still a problem can you please check if anyone else you know is having the same problem, or if it happens with a specific texture or all textures for you, etc.? If you're able to reproduce it solidly, please send a bug report using the info here: Bug Reporting 101 _____________________

This has happened to me on machines with 128mb of video memory (or less). The first load the image seems to have memory priority and isn't as compressed, and looks great. Afterward, what you see is a more heavily compressed image, and so it looks a bit blurry. When I got a 256mb video card, all images were significantly sharper.
