Hmm, no one is responding, I wonder why. Could it be because no one cares?

GAH, WE FUCKING KNOW WHO YOU ARE YOU DON'T HAVE TO END YOUR POST WITH YOUR NAME.

But yes, try photoshop.

Well since this is a flash based site I must recommend and endorse Flash.

Also, (and mostly) because flash is badass.

Any drawing program that offer anti-aliasing should work. Try googling "GIMP" and "Paint.NET". Those are 2 image editors that I find work well for drawing.

You also may want to invest in a Wacom tablet if you haven't already.

For drawing, you should probably use a Wacom Tablet. Get the Bamboo. It's cheap and efficient.

Well, I you should download Gimp and get a tablet. Or just scan a picture and post it on the Art forum.

If you're looking for something affordable, then either Paint.NET or Gimp will do just fine. Photoshop is always a good choice, too.
