Did PSA change their slabs? Scan examples...

Hey gang. I was just looking thru my Nov. monster order and just admiring my cards
then I noticed something. The bulk of my order consisted of Jersey rookie cards.
I noticed that the slabs looked different for the jersey cards maybe because the
jersey cards are thicker in stock (which they are). I'm showing you 2 examples (1 jsy, 1 reg from same order)
and hopefully my scans are clear enough. You can see under the flip that the male/female
connectors look different. Also on the left and right edge, the male/female connectors are
placed differently. In fact, you can't even see them on the jersey card. I don't mind them
catering to different sizes and maybe that's a good thing since they have rejected a lot of
my super thick patch cards before because it doesn't fit their slabs. I don't know if it's my imagination.
Anyways, I only have one gripe. All/most of my auto jersey and jersey rc in this batch in this
different holder (in my opinion) have cloudiness on the edges. Is it because of the thickness during
the welding part that made this you think? The cloudiness are kind of like little patches here and there.
One last note. If you look at the reg signed card, on the right edge where the flip (upper corner and bottom
corner) you'll also see 2 brackets and 1 more where the letter "K" linear to the name Milalek near bottom
right. The jersey card has none of these. Overall, the 2 holders look different. The reg sign card has a clear
plastic look; while the jsy holder has an abrasive glassy look. Anyone else have graded jersey/thick cards that can also confirm?
If the scans aren't there, Geocities' site is down for now. Also, the cloud patches looks like JJ's Mantle from this
other thread. Mantle. I know I'm
probably just being paranoid because of the forbidden word Wiggy that no one knows about. If I sell them, would
I start getting all kinds of crazy questions or possible accusations. Oh well, good night.
