Follow-up: I had trouble matching the background color of my image with other elements adjacent with png. So I switched to gif -- text looks great and color matches!

Oh! Thanks, I didn't know that. I'm an image novice and appreciate the advice. Peace, Terri Z

I've searched the forums and haven't found this problem described anywhere. I have a small button that is a dark grey background and bright yellow/gold text (Verdana, 10, bold, italics). I put the image together with layersl, and it looks great when I view it on the Paint.NET screen. However, when I save it as a JPG, the text is less bright, and at 800% I can see that the text has lighter areas and is fuzzy. I tried flattening the image first and then saving as JPG, but got the same result. Resolution is set at 96 pixels/inch and save quality is 100%. http://www.solo-e.com/newimages/buttonhome_f3.jpg http://www.solo-e.com/newimages/masters ... ftwork.pdn Any ideas why this might be happening, and suggestions of how to fix and/or compensate for it, are appreciated!
