When I make a web banner that is only text it looks great in GIMP and in
my web page maker.

When I put it up on the web the text looks "rough" like someone cut it
out with a jig saw.

I use the banner in JPG format or GIF format and the results are the same.
    

Does this really also happen when you have a file that's never been saved to 
gif, i.e. has never been downgraded to 256 colors?
  

Yes.  It happens in both JPG and GIF.

What I do to solve the problem is make the PX count large using GIMP and then shrink it down on my webpage maker and it works out nicely.  Translated- it shouldn't have to be this way.
