Icon resolution in ListView

Hello my name is Chris I am fairly new to Euphoria and
brand new to this list.  I have been searching the
archives (excellent tool btw) for a while to answer my
questions but this one has me stumped.  I have
extracted the first icon from shell32.dll to use in a
ListView

ic = addIcon( extractIcon( {"shell32.dll", 1} ) )

I believe this is the default icon Windows uses if it
doesn't know a file type.  The problem is that the
icon looks 'washed out' kind of fuzzy or low
resolution.  When I display my ListView and compare
the icon to the icon Windows displays in an Explorer
window set to View Details the Windows icon is crisper
with more detail/color.  This is true for all of the
ListView demos and programs that I tried.  Does anyone
else have this problem?  I am using win32lib 0.57.9,
Judith's IDE 15 on WinME.  An interesting side note is
that if I use loadLVInfo() every row gets the first
icon I added/extracted.  Anyway thanks in advance, I
have already a condiderable amount just from reading
this list.  Chris
