I'm having problems creating a logo for my site. I'm trying to use the GIMP, but it's not turning out that well. The logo background is simply a yellow-green gradient, and the text "no enemies" is dark green with a transparent highlight on the top to make it look shiny, and then a white border. For some reason whenever I do the border, it turns out all blury.

What other (free) programs are better for logo creation? Or are there any GIMP tutorials on how to do this?

TIA.
