The title states all. My custom textures in my custom instance are misaligned. If someone asks, I will give the textures and instance, but DO NOT USE THEM, they're reserved for something I am making May or May Not be a Map! DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNN!!!!

If you've got misaligned textures, then just open the instance and fix them. Texture Application Tool, Justify to L then Top, and you're set.

You don't understand. In hammer, everything is aligned, yet in game, they aren't.

Check to make sure it is texture locked.

Is that a custom texture, or a stock one?

A custom texture, like I said.

Would you mind copy/pasting your Vmt file?

Your problem is not that you have misaligned textures, your problem is that you should make your textures a larger size in order to avoid such texture-scaling in game. Try unpressing the "Scaling Texture lock" button of your toolbar, the one on the right:

However, the texture you show in that screenshot ("scary_light_cracked") is 128x128 pixels, but you are trying to use it for a 128x128 *hammer units* panel, but that is not the default proportion. 128 hammer units are 512 pixels in "real life". Try to make your texture the size you really need it.

Also, you are using the 'noportal' parameter wrongly:

Wrong = $noportal 1
Correct = "%noportal" 1

Okay thanks, and for the noportal thing, I was wondering why portals were working.
