If you want the best of the best when it comes to pixel graphics and animation, look no further. The workflow is blazingly fast once you get up to speed with how the program works (I can't count the amount of minutes--nay--hours the anti-aliasing tool in particular has saved, it's friggin' MAGICAL)... and with the detailed, easy-to-follow tutorial videos made by the developer, it won't take long for you to get to that point. The rest is easy to figure out by reading the included help file, toying around with the tools given to you, and the Keyboard Shortcuts... option in the File menu (which allows you to look through the various shortcuts for different functionality as well as assign your own shortcuts).

The palette tools (colour cycling! quick generation of RGB/HSV colour ramps! stencils! etc. etc.) are unmistakably the most powerful I've seen in any pixel art program ever, period. The brush modes and operations are incredibly useful, as are the multiple grids, tilemapping tools... I could gush for ages about every single aspect of this program.

Thanks for making such a wonderful product at such a wonderful price point, it has helped to speed up my work in game development significantly, as well as make it more enjoyable overall.

If you're serious about pixel art, I would definitely recommend getting this software.

Also... I really think a lot of people are just impatient with the software. Give it some time, you will be rewarded.
