I am trying to create some buttons for a website I am building. There will be a number of buttons, they are circles that have one or two words written in them. Each button is 128x128 pixels. I am trying to do it on Gimp but the text on the image never looks as crisp as normal text.

I have seen images as small or even smaller than this with very clear and crisp text. Is there a way to do this using gimp or another free tool?

Update:
This image shows my textbox setting.

"Normal text" is not normal text. It has a subpixel aliasing that makes it crisper than any normal aliasing gimp or photoshop can make on a normal raster image.

You can try to use a svg image (made in inkscape) or use text with the image as a background (use css to arrange the button).
