I understand blending, where pixels being drawn are affected by the pixels behind them. My problem is the visible blurring, where two or more adjacent pixels are affecting one another. I have an idea that HL is trying to draw my sprites with the wrong dimensions, and attempting to stretch them to match. However, I don't know what could be causing this. I'm passing the correct sprite rectangles into SPR_DrawXXX.
