Edges are pixelated. Anyone has an idea on how to make them smooth?

I think you need to save VTF as anistropic

I don't have the rights for it.. but here is a suggestion.

Gave that a try, but didn't see a noticable difference. And I'd rather fix it in PS first, as the texture is currently 1024*1024. Want to scale it down to 512*512 when it's finished.

Here's what it looks like in PS (300% zoom):

Keep in mind that this is going to be very small on the screen, dark cursive letters on top of a contrasty background usually don't work well when viewed in small areas

what do you suggest? should i change the background, or the color of the text or change the font?

I tried giving it a white grayish drop shadow it made it pop some more.

just a quick one

Load it up on a preview_model and see how it currenly looks. I'd also suggest a more readable font

well that's how it looks in game as a "glossy sticker style"

Already know how it works, its time to think on something more serious.

I tryed some different distances, you can still make out what it is but you can't really read it. D:

Any suggestions on the font i should use? like a 3D font or just something bold?

Nice, thick letters and simple forms (no fancy-ass fonts) is the key.

Changed it a little bit. Any good?

Hey guys! Check out my Bulldozer sticker. As you can guess, I really like bulldozers.

Seems like you are having a noisy texture wich will be perforated by the alpha test wich also had few noise with smooth corner. I think you should expend the white edge to make it larger than your alpha (to avoid any padding problem) and then, smooth a little bit your alpha.

Btw, this isn't a real problem since you'll never have your noose one as the other said =)

Better?

I've been working on that today, but I'm tired of looking at it. Some feedback would be awesome, how about color schemes? Font? anything.
