I took a picture to explain the issue better what I mean, it is not ideal being a jpeg, but I zoomed in on a tga of the text and noted that you have outline then a blurred edge of the text which is causing the background to bleed in a little. It happens more extremely when we are displaying red text with our game timer it seems to be a slightly larger gap then. Oddly it isn't noticeable unless you have a color behind it that is similar to the text or if you have really bright color values behind it, like on our timer when players look at the bright areas of the skybox.

I saw the outlined death notices on your site :D Can't wait for 1.04 Anyway, are you sure the ATI issue isn't to do with centroid hacks (like in Hammer)? I have an ATI card and I fall victim to Hammer's messed up text, don't know if it's fixed yet, though.
