Basically the artist does not take into account where his light source is coming from, and therefore makes the centered areas of the graphic very light and gradually makes it darker the closer to the edge it gets. This creates an effect which makes it look like it is made out of pillows and is therefore referred to pillow shading.

It's a basic nooby GFXer thing, just a bad habit that has to be broke.
