tox is there any other way to see it EG scroll over a pixel in the pic and it tells you what block to use.. Rather than keeping the palette editor open???
Would be great help if there is a way like this

No there is not, unless you go Terre-style and do it yourself. But srsly, how much easier can we make it. I'm actually considering taking this down, for people just want to start spriting, without even trying to do some effort by themselves. I really haven't seen anything original as of lately except Terres work.

How do you resize the picture to be smaller? (I use the photoshop way)

Image -----> Image size.

See, that's what I mean, no offense to you personally Mr. but have you ever even used an image-editor before? I get the feeling most people just see sprites, think, oh cool, I wanna do that too, and just think it's copy-pasting from the image. I even see people not knowing that they have to zoom in to see the individual pixels, which really disappoints me. I would like this topic to be moved to the crafter+ forums, so not every retard can have his way with this. Spriting is an art, it's not difficult, but you will need to put time in it to get hang of it. I don't have the feeling most of you appreciate the hard work people do to verify each pixel against the available blocks, to see which one is best. Doing days of preparations before you can actually start working. The weeks it took Terre to do his knight all on the eye, I think you should show a little more appreciation for this.
Anyway, locked for now to further questions, you'll have to do it with this.

I've never got photoshop before...

I never knew how stupid I was one year ago, until now. I will break down your quote, Mr.Monkey.

It was my first time ever using an image editor for real instead of just scribbling over the page or changing the background colour with the paint bucket.

I actually needed more time to know what I was doing before I was able to sprite, it took me a few months to know what and how to do it.
