I've been trying to share some of my pixelart on tumblr, but while it looks fine when I post it, (see below left) when viewed on other pages, like when someone reblogs it, it's blown up to many times it's initial size, and blurred to sh*t as well (below right). If any of you guys know how to fix this, it would be greatly appreciated.

Images such as yours will normally show up fine on the dashboard. Tumblr's blog themes are the problem, as they often use CSS to stretch smaller images. The only real workaround to the issue is to post an image with a 540px width.
