Pretty good for a first attempt. I'll agree it looks like you have
used a bit too much pressure or the paper you used was not quite
right. Try some other papers (matte ink jet papers work well).

Also, for your next attempt I would set your board program to show
drill holes, so you pads come out as doughnuts rather than solid
circles. The advantage is that when you come to drill (by hand ?)
the center of the pad has a dip to stop the drill bit dancing across
the surface of the pad.
