How can I smooth my text. My website is coming along fine except for the fact that the text looks really bad.

There's conflicting reports on using this technique but this is what you need:
html {
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
}

David Tonge
Courses Plus Student 45,640 PointsYour css file or where ever your CSS is located.

Courses Plus Student 45,640 PointsAre you using a Mac or PC? There could be a lot of things that affect the rendering of the text. Look up "CSS font antialiasing" on Google and customize the search to reflect the machine that you use.
