Four identical blue pixelated text icons arranged in a 2x2 grid on a black background with white pixelated border. Each icon displays the text "Tessy" in large blue letters at the top, followed by "Tessy" in smaller blue letters, then "Tessy" in even smaller blue letters, and finally "Tessy" in the smallest blue letters at the bottom. The text is rendered in a blocky, pixelated style with no additional graphics or symbols. The background is solid black with a white pixelated border surrounding the entire grid. The icons are identical across all four positions.
