GIMP all the way. If you get photoshop, you are trying too hard.

Windows: Notepad++ / Gvim
Linux: Gvim

lol, photoshop is for real images...

NotePad++ and GIMP. Besides, MS Paint can't use alpha. And I regret sticking with LuaEdit for so long before trying NotePad++.

I can't even put into words how stupid that is.

This is pixel art, not photos.

I don't recommend you buy photoshop for this, but you can still use it of you have it. I use gimp. I prefer it to Photoshop.

Also, the Node Box Editor is handy, but you don't need it: you could code boxes by hand.

Most professionals and experts I have spoken to (or read) seem to agree that Photoshop has more advanced features than Gimp. I haven't come anywhere near to figuring out how to use all of the advanced features in Gimp. So paying for Photoshop would be a complete waste of my money. Like purchasing a high powered desktop computer to play minesweeper.

You are making pixel art, not advertisement posters.

Gimp likes to crash on me like every five minutes when I tried it on Windows. For Linux, there is no beating Gimp though, yet. I love Photoshop, though even for pixel art, it is fast, and has never crashed yet, and I've been using it for over a decade.
I also can not stand Blender, it pisses me off so much. What takes me an hour in 3DS Max (Also free for anything but rendering. You can get the student edition for free here. http://www.autodesk.com/education/free- ... 12/popular) takes me eight in Blender!
I hope someone makes a B3D exporter for 3DS Max, I would be so happy. As it is I model and UV map it in Max then import that into Blender.
