AVD launches various text and icon sizes

I started developing Android just a month ago, so it's still a newbie. My problem is that my AVD sometimes starts with different sizes of icons in the emulator, that is, different application icons sometimes seem bigger / smaller. The same goes for text size. This applies to all applications in the list of AVD applications (including standard ones, for example, to the gallery), as well as the size of the initial screen text. Basically, this is a system system, and this happens quite by accident (randomly starts AVD)!
So help me. Is there anything related to emulator startup options?
Almost forgot - using Windows 7 32-bit, eclipse and SDK 2.3.3

This should be related to pixel density. Make sure that they remain unchanged in the emulator settings. If you change your resolution, they may change.

EDIT: Well, this happens sometimes in a purely random way. Close the emulator and restart it. If this still happens, edit the emulator, leave it as it is and click on edit. Should solve the problem.
