  If it is pixilated on his monitor but looks good on all of yours doesn’t that support my question about his monitor?

  as you can see the fonts are pixelated and the trees and background too - some things are fine like distance etc

  Now you're getting somewhere. By the responses to your pics as well as what I see, do you have another monitor you could try just to eliminate it as the problem?

  If his monitor was cream crackered, wouldn't everything look pixellated and not just the game?

  Mrbit, some parts of the game do look a little pixellated normally, especially where there is text that is an image or part of an image. These images may be low resolution to keep the load times down and the player is not a particularly high resolution object either.

  thanks for all the rsponses guys - I think maybe because I havent played for over 6 years my brain tricked me into thinking the graphics were better - maybe after all the time off ive forgot what the graphics were like
  
  im sure when I used to play it was very high res pictures in a game

  You could probably verify what you're thinking by shrinking the playing screen to the approximate size of your old laptop. See if maybe the smaller the pic gets, the sharper it gets.  :-)

  those images look perfectly fine to me.

  same here.

   

  He may need to take a picture with a cell phone or digital camera and upload it so we can see what he is describing.  

  Ditto - those look fine to me.  Maybe he needs some glasses?

  I'm just kidding - it deos seem strange, though.  It is definitely not in WGT's end.
