Images/sizes are larger and blurry in wordpress theme - help?

[Exnie]

I am trying to make a wordpress theme but am having some trouble. When I place images or set distances, they show up larger when I look at them in the browser.

What I doing is making a <div> and then in the css file I set the width, height and, background. But when I open the page to see how it looks my, lets say, 50 x 50 px image is now 55 x 55 px and blurred. The jpg I'm using is 50 x 50. I set the sizes in the css file as 50 x 50. Why is it displaying like this?

Also, this problem is not due to it being a .jpg. When I set the height of a div box to 50 px it displays as 58 px.

Here's an image depicting the problem:

maybe somewhere else on your css is telling it to make it bigger, or it could be that your browser is zoomed in, go to view on your browser and make sure you are not zoomed in.
