This is kind of a not question question - but I'm having a hard time getting "comfortable" when using certain programs.
So far the only one that I really like is Pyxel Edit - it's cheap and it does everything I want. But, there is this strange issue that is sort of frustrating me, whenever I try to use the main pen tool and block out a shape of something, lets say a filled in blob in a small area it doesn't draw any pixels. It only works if I move my pen along a larger path. It's a weird little hangup that's making the process really frustrating and I don't come across this issue in Graphic Gale for example. Though I find the UI of graphic gale to be clunky and it doesn't do the great thing of pyxel edit where it gives you a bunch of different shades and hues of the color you've picked.
Does anyone know about this strange pyxel edit hangup or can recommend some similar programs?
