hey guys,
a while ago i was refered to this pixel art package. It is one of the most amazing tools ive seen. it is free, but if you register it u get to use a bunch more file formats. i think it would be worth your time to check it out.

I still use and prefer MSPaint for sprites and tiles. I mean, I only need 4 shades for tiles and 16 shades for sprites. Programms like photoshop and gale dont offer the friendly (n00b) gui mspaint does.

And I've read tsugumo's tutorials, they are very good. Just remove default.htm for the menu:
