When you're typing your text, make sure your anti alias is set to Smooth.
This is right next to the size selector.
Also, make sure you always save as a PNG.
One more thing, it may be the stroke making it look this way. A large stroke on small text doesn't work well

Thank you so much :D How do you adjust the stroke?
When you right-click the layer, and go to blending options, and go to stroke, under structure, it says "Size". Adjust it from there

I think the text looks alright but it does look a bit funky because of the stroke. It looks a bit choppy on the edges. I agree on the making sure the anti alias is set to smooth & the lowering the stroke amount. This link should help you with you stroke settings in PSP.
