    Here is the deal.

    Only use PNGs

    Always align any PNGs or bitmaps to a corner in your symbol. DO NOT EVER align it in the center of the symbol.

    Always go into the library and uncheck the smoothing option.

    Finally I always expand any images with a transparent outline by 2 pixels on all sides becuase the registration point (that dot that cross you see inside the symbol) has a tendency to warp whatever part of the image it is over. Therefor..if I have a 2 pixel buffer around the image. The registration point isn't directly over any pixels.

    With those tips I haven't had a pixel shift in any of my projects not even in development stages in over 2 years.
