We can see the improvements.
Just turn off anti-aliasing on text to get rid of the blurry effect.

Not bad, but it seems some of your userbars have a very low picture quality. As Vitality said, remove the AA on the text and it will look so much better. Good work for first try, keep em coming

Try setting your text up exactly like Vitality showed you, with same size and same text type. Seems like you are using "Visitor TT1 BRK" instead of "Visitor -BRK-" which is the most used one. When you set the stroke around your text, make sure it fits the background and dosent make it look blurry.
Just curious, when you save your userbars, what do you save them as?

Depends on what you are using it for, but for userbars its normally enough to goto Photoshop>File>Save for web>jpeg (save as max and 100% quality.

I always save them as png, because png format preserves better quality than jpg.
Here's a comparison between jpg and png
