That's gotta be tough for your TV, as I hear it isn't easy being green. :lol:
As for your issue, a glass screen generally indicates a CRT TV. They are suseptible to magnetic interferance from nearby sources like poorly shielded speakers. Some TVs have a degauss function, not not all. Check to see if you TV can perform this function as it will likely return it to normal.
First, make sure this isn't actively being caused by something near the TV like an external speaker. Then find if your TV has a degauss function. You may need to use it many, many times to make this go away depending on the severity. Beyond that you can buy manual degaussers:

Be careful using them, as their ability to fix a CRT is exactly how you bulk erase floppy disks and hard drives (CDs and other optical media are safe).

I just have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed that entire post.
Great "not easy bein' green" line...that's a real zinger. And the best part - the tag...very nice.
where would the degauss function be, like on the tv menu using my remote or what? Also i have attached speakers on each side of my tv if that helps.That's gotta be tough for your TV, as I hear it isn't easy being green. :lol:

I would suspect that is a tiny red button that you need a pencil or or sewing needle to push. I see a little button on my old CRT display that says "Reset" but it may be called "de gause". It may be a button or in a menu. Location is probably with the rest of the display control buttons or behind the display.where like the channel buttons are located on my tv? can u be a little bit more specififc ?

Well if something doesn't keep messing it up it MIGHT go away on its own, but that could take 6 or more before you notice that it is gone completely. Like someone said earlier, try finding a manual degausser that you can by and use on it. That seems like your only option if your TV doesn't have an option.
 Edit: If it only happens with your 360, maybe that cables are bad.
