First of all, switch over to FireWorks... It is in many ways superior for WEB DEVELOPMENT work (that's to stop all the people who get uppity about photoshop and image manipulation).
Fireworks also has anti-aliasing support plus it has custom aliasing where you can determine strength, sharpness, and the number of times you go over it (can't think of how to describe it better). In my experience, Fireworks just makes nice photos. Also, when you export, choose GIF > Exact that way its true colors, not small color sets. If you want, send me the PNG and I can give it a go. -ben .......................

How does one create "crisp" text images in PhotoShop? We have a nav bar that the text gets all fuzzy, no matter what settings we use (anti-aliasing Crisp, Smooth, etc). He also claims that he has Googled this topic and hasn't come up with anything that goes more in-depth than "Photoshop provides anti-aliasing options like Crisp, Smooth, etc. etc.." Anyone have any advice on how to do this in a sure-fire way? We also have Illustrator and Fireworks, if those do the job any better. I know that this isn't a graphics forum, but you guys are geniuses at everything else, so why not graphics. An example to see what I mean: http://www.cvwp.com/images/m_about.gif Thanks, Ray ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:252610 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
