Pixel Joint Forum: Just started, Need Pointers!

Message

   Ok, trying to start this, my current stuff is worse then the PokeMon games, which, when I discovered my old one recently, prompted me to try and make Pixel Art, currently working with Tiles, making in MS Paint and compiling them in Powerpoint 2007, unfortunately the compression rate of MS Paint makes looped tiles have `fuzzy` edging, so the tile edges show. I am looking for a good program to work with (must work with Vista) and any tips you have for me, thanks!

	Mspaint is a great program. For the wee, save the image as 24bit BMP, than you can draw every color you want. Also, this is the wip thread, where you are supposed to place images you work on and ask for our critique, not where you ask questions for programs. And at last, please do not double (or triple post), there is an edit button on every post of yours you can use if you need to add something.
