anti alias or not to anti alias?
Simple question, when you are designing a website in photoshop do you add AA (anti alias) onto headers or content text?
I know lots of people who say yes, and lots that say no.

When designing a website in Photoshop, there is a general rule for Anti Aliasing that most should know. The rule states that if the text is 18px or more, you should Anti-Alias, were as if its 16 or less you really shouldn't...

I tend to anti alias headers most of the time. However, the content really does depend on the type of design.

Pretty much this. It depends on the size of the text. If it's under 13px, I never alti-alias

Agreed to all of the above. My content text is always aliased - but I go anti-alias for the large titles and headers.

Anti-alias for content looks very terrible and unprofessional. I never use AA for Arial fonts.
