I came across this tonight, its an old fashioned sprite art util for pixel artists.

Great found! :good:
I already like the overalls of it, will give a shot as time allows.
On the same ´style´ of paint program, you should check:

It has a version for caanoo too, which is ´strongly´ pushing me into aquiring a caanoo...
Only problem in getting one either from play-asia or ED(evil dragon) is that I may be taxed here, and it can amount to double the price...so I have to prepare my heart for that :'(
The other excellent tool on the same style is this one PIXOTELLO:

...scroll down to see a download feature.

thanks again for sharing!
D-pixel isn't new to RetroRemakes forumites; it was written by one of the regulars and is a pretty nice program.
I want to find an art program that can morph graphics in the same way that Duluxe Paint 3 used to do it, where you just needed a begining and ending graphic and no need to setup morphing points.
If you can get hold of a copy of "The Games Factory" - the successor to Klick n Play and forerunner to GameMaker and MultiMedia Fusion, that had a morphing utility exactlylike you are wanting. I think I still have my copy somewhere... I don't know if it's compatible with Windows 7 and I can't remember if it exported images/animations, but you should be able to grab them easily enough. I'll have a looksee and let you know.
Okay, thanks.
PIXOTELLO is another nice find Erico, very handy for tile sets! :good:
Toon Boom Studio is another that will morph etc.
However its not free and I don't use it, I just saw it on you tube

I´m quite found of the animation part!
So far I have never been able to finish something with Pixothello. I always make it either crash or just messing up the whole sprite-sheet. Save often and make sure you don't have a non-american windows... :-)
Tree-d is pretty specific to an isomeric style.
