Hey guys, what do you use for your art?
I usually use mspaint but I'd appreciate some god damned transparency, among other things.

[shyGriff]

i use firealpaca because that's what i use for drawing and all other programs typically used for pixel art are windows only

[Jairo]

for transparency, use gimp
I still sprite in mspaint then transparentise in gimp

i don't use ms paint but i'd assume it's not any different than making pixel art in other programs?

[Alteration]

Going to jump in here real quick and say that paint.net is virtually perfect for pixel art.

I can totally see what it is.

The "T" is an underwater scene.
The "h" is an sky scene.
The "e" is an underground scene.
The "E" is an summer scene.
The "r" is an autumn scene.
The "a" is an winter scene.
The avatar below is used for the tumblr account but will not be the starting point.

TheEra (The Era) is also "Terra".
Basically you start with nothing and you explore and stuff like that in what would be the "earth after a natural apocalypse" = you can find ruins of cool stuff eventually, but mainly you are starting alone in the middle of nowhere. Basically the start of a new era.
