Why does this PNG file look so poorly when embedded as a resource in a Qt project?

Here is the PNG file and what it looks like in a QWebView when accessed via http://sstatic.net/so/img/logo.png:

When accessed via HTTP:

<img src="http://sstatic.net/so/img/logo.png" width='250' height='61' />


When accessed via a resource:

<img src="qrc:/images/logo.png" width='250' height='61' />


As you can see, the only modification was the src attribute of the image tag... why the drop in quality?

Edit: The file is being shrunk via width: and height: in the style attribute, if that makes a difference. I updated the code.
