They're for...

I only made them in Photoshop though.

They're kinda poorly drawn. The lines are overly thick, and rather messy. The grey backgrounds seem to give the images themselves a lower contrast.

That means I have to make the outlines thinner then...

To be truthful I don't like the whole thing, it looks blurry and almost burnt in appearance!

Try something a little less forced for detail!

I just started on a new style today in fact that I think would suit your game a little better. It's a WIP but it might give you an idea:

@Dung Beetle: I like it.  The background needs work, but I like the style.  Maybe just make it a little cleaner - don't change the lines, just sharpen them.

Hang on... you made those in photoshop? :huh:

Try using a shape or line option and messing with nodes so that you can get neat outlines rather than blurry disfigured ones.

They are tad messy for being made in photoshop.

@Tindy: I have to make the lines a bit thinner and the background's actually nothing, I'm going to make it transparent.

@ultimaodin: I did made them in Photoshop.

If you have flash, I have a technique that works a lot for me. Draw out the character or whatever. scan it into the computer. go into flash, import it. Then make a new layer while locking the previous one. trace over it using lines. you can bend the lines very precise and make them any thickness on the fly. works great for manga work. I suggest trying it out. I was surprised at the results myself.
