Photoshop will render type to its best given the limits of the resolution. The problem here (if there is one) is the relation to the line edge angle on the letter A when displaying @ 72dpi.

(If you want to test this, try typing letter “A” at 130px with the font “IMPACT” in photoshop - with the document resolution of 72dpi and you will see what I mean.) Try the same in Freeway you get a similar result.

The logo is rendered as best it can.

The Logo. It is clearly not antialiased correctly. Seen best on the A and the V. I may be being picky but you might find it better to produce this logo in Adobe Illustrator or make it and then resize it as a smart object in Photoshop.

I tend to agree, but plain text in Photoshop does look better (less pixellated) but to get the gradient fill the text has to be converted to paths - this is where the slight problem occures.

Is it possible to gradient fill text in Photoshop?

Hi Mark

I like your site - nice and clean and unlike many graphic design companies you have not tried to be too clever.

I do think the home page would benefit from a few examples of your work. Perhaps these could change each time you visited the page?

Regarding the logo - It’s a wee bit fuzzy on my screen but I am looking at it closely because it has been mentioned.

But as I said I like the minimal approach : )

I’ve done a bit of Photoshop work and you’re right, it is as good as it’s going to be.

Thanks

Yes. Plenty of info on how to that by googling.

I had a muck about in Photoshop applying a gradient mask over some type then saving for the web in various formats and quality - IMO there will always be some pixelation on the A and V.
Example here (Similar font used)…

Wow, thanks Graham. Think that puts that one to rest - there will always be pixelation at 72dpi

Cheers

No Problem Mark.
Nothing like helping solve other peoples’ problems to get you away from your own LOL!
