I just recently started getting back into pixel art and animation after some 10 years of pause and am a bit out of the scene now.
I used to use MS Paint and Jasc Animation Shop 2 or 3 back then and later when I lost JAS I started using Gimp with MS Paint and that just doesn't seem to be the best combo really... I sort of like MS Paint in all it's crappiness but I'm up for suggestions. Layers would be great.... :lol:
So I'd like to know what softwares do you people use for pixel art (and animation)? What would you recommend and why?

Hey, I used to use JASC Paint Shop Pro/Animation Shop too and they were pretty great for pixel art back... 15 years ago, was it? Asprite is great, but let me also put in a vote for Cosmigo Pro Motion, it's been my tool of the trade for a long time, if you like Deluxe Paint and understand that workflow, it'll feel natural. If not, it has a bit of a learning curve.

If you don't want to download anything, I suggest making an account on pixilart.com. It has everything you need to make good pixel art.
