What format are you using to save your map graphic? Jpeg, PNG? Could you post the map file you want to use and a screenshot of how it looks in your browser?

What DPI are you saving your image at?

More importantly, what are the pixel dimensions, and what is the intended number of grid squares? DPI is an illusion for online graphics. You should save the image with sufficient resolution for each 70 pixels to span 1 grid square: a 20x20 map should be 1400 x 1400 pixels. (Or at least in that neighborhood).
Try using the zoom out/in tool on the side; zoom out, zoom back in.  I found that it fixes issues similar to yours.
