What tool can i use too make some small bitmap characters?


Thanks.

a) Make them in big size and scale them down before saving ;)
b) Use MS Paint ;) The best program for small graphics

Why is MS Paint good for anything at all? I mean you could make your small graphics in PSP too, and you can store them in any format you want :), how about downscaling does MS Paint do that?

Kedaman, MS Paint is one of the best programs I know ;) It supports 90° rotating, Scaling and many other effects... well, in fact PSP is better but I don't like it so I'd rather take MS Paint. But in normal case I use PhotoPaint.

Well, ok maybe youre right, for slow comps (not mine) when you open a huge graphics app it's annoying. MS Paint is light, and well if it does scaling, then it's good enough for that :) But i didn't check it when i reinstalled win98 so i don't have it
