It's capturing the shadow. I run ShadowKiller at all times and it solves the problem, or I think there is an app that lets you change a setting to not capture the shadow.
I know ShadowKiller says it does not work in 10.5 or 10.6 but I have been using it without issue on all versions of OS X since 10.4.6.
My home server (which will double as a workstation when I get my hands on an iPad):

what work do you do?
(i should know this already but i dont hah)
My card says I'm an Online Developer.
Most of the time I'm programming in php (to get our custom made CMS system to behave), and also a bit html/css/javacripting/etc, most of the time directly on some online website.
So, my main work tools are Coda (and Transmit) and the odd Photoshop-job. All of those run nicely on the Server. And I do have an iMac at work, so the home machine is just for the odd fix and a side project or two.
I also need the server to run a few hobby apps: Lightroom (which I own) or Aparture (which I consider switching to) and, of course, iPhoto for photo management from my DSLR and point-and-shoot, respectivly...
I also have all my music in iTunes at the server already.

ahhh ok im with you. so its just a machine for light-medium use (unless you multi-task alot?). you perfectly specc'd it then!
so its a macbook/macbook pro? odd sort of thing to have as a server. uses less power tho i guess.
nice hobbies
i want to get into video production.
Nah, it's the Mac mini server (hooked up to my 1080p HD TV).
I actually used to be a video editor 10-15 years ago, and even though I haven't tried video editing on the Mac mini, but I would guess it would excel at handling Final Cut Express (or iMovie).

of course!! completely forgot about the macmini! sorry haha. it really does seem like a pretty powerful machine, for its size anyway.
10-15years ago? wow technology would have changed since then! everythings all digital now! but yes i really do love video editing and those sorts of things, im not exactly sure what area i would want to get into - maybe just FCP editing and not actually the "filming" side of it (im not very creative).
Early 2009 MacBook AL_Unibody
Bought this imacculate MB Unibody (Aluminum) yesterday; and although I've probably posted like crazy ... saving for 3mths and working my arse off paying bills on-time, reducing debt and still treating the kids ... this is just pure nectar sweet.
I've wanted a semi modern Mac for oh so long and right now I'm just trying to install themes on Snow Leopard (Ceasar or Veritas) and cannot seem to get those to work.
