I've been having a problem with Gnome where my fonts have been extremely skinny, sort of pixelated, and not anti-aliased at all. Any help?

Your font look quite good to me. Cannot notice a different between your and mine fonts. oO

Fonts look thinner with sub-pixel hinting, try disabling it

Looks somewhat better, perhaps slightly blurred in most applications. In Firefox, the act of changing hinting didn't change a thing, though. Any help on this? Besides the fonts being thin, they are small. And if I do ctrl +, they are too big . I need a medium ground with these things.

If your fonts are small, check that you have correctly set your DPI for X.

I'll further what stonecrest said. I had that problem when I switched to my laptop, had to manually set dpi to 96 I think...anyways there are good stuff about this in the wiki somewhere, couldn't find it rightaway though...
if you want to try this though, this is how I did.
# vim /usr/bin/startx
edit the following line like this (insert correct dpi)
defaultserverargs=" -dpi 96"
I think there is a better solution though....And in case you don't start your x-server with startx I this probably won't do much though....

In case you use 'startx', just edit ~/.xserverrc:
#!/bin/sh
exec Xorg -nolisten tcp -dpi 96

If you're using GNOME you can just specify the correct DPI in the font configuration app. Your fonts look very good here. Very crisp and clear.

i find 75 dpi provides much crisper fonts.
