Yeah those artifacts are typical of tiff graphics. Avoid tiff. To get  
better looking and smaller (load fast) graphics always use JPEG.

Snapz Pro X settings

preferences, jpg. settings, file creator Photoshop (assuming you have  
it).

Then open in Photoshop and File -> Save for Web... to radically  
reduce it's size while retaining quality. Adjust quality in upper  
right corner and it will change and show size on bottom left corner.  
You can play with the quality size until it's as small as possible  
without falling apart. This is the "ImageReady" component of  
Photoshop that used to be a separate application in previous  
versions. I am referring to PhotoShop CS (8). Best to run all  
graphics through ImageReady to keep all your images JPEG and as small  
as possible for maximum site loading speed. You can open almost any  
graphic element in Photoshop no matter what type it is and convert it  
to JPEG for the web through this path.
