I notice when I want to make these for desktop, the icons are distorted.
This is using Vista.

I gues it's because the favicon is 16x16 and vista is stretching it to make it bigger.

Chrome (well, Gears) transforms the favicon (16x16) into a full-size icon and that's why it's distorted.

To solve the problem you can downloads some of the following full-sized icons:

They're created with Fluid in mind (that does the same for Mac) but you can use it on Windows too.
