The website preview is kinda cheating by showing a smoothed image.

Filtering and mipmapping is always going to behave a bit here and there with dithered images (and depending on settings may even differ from one client to another), which is why I've always recommended against them.

That being said, it would probably be a good idea if the previews could be ingame instead of on the website in order to match expected and actual results a bit better. I'm just not sure how to handle that properly UI-wise yet.

Just making the web preview worse to better match the in-game result seems easier.

1) Remove the smooting.
2) Display at 200%
