It's fine, just don't do it again, okay? Welcome to the forums.

I use AGS (of course), MSpaint (drawing), The Gimp (touch-ups), Midi Maker (midis) and SCIstuidio (fonts)...

With those, I say you are fully equipped!

so, you switch between two OS?

Well, I'm also a n00b to AGS and just started to do my first game. Some of my backgrounds are overdrawn photos so I use Photoshop firstly and then I do the 'fine' stuff with MS paint. For background music I use Tracker software to creat .mod's and I use Cool Edit Pro 2.0 for voice and sound effects. To check my animations I recently used the free MS gif tool or the Animation Shop that comes with Paint Shop Pro. that's it

? Did you mean GIMP? There's a window$ compile for GIMP, which is quite popular.

I do that sometimes too, i find paints pencil and line tool more precise for some reason..

Actually, if you are familiar with Flash, then you can draw background and other such things in Flash. And if you don't like the finished product, you could go as simple as just loading that picture into MSpaint (don't overlook the quality of MSPaint) and do touchups there.

thats a good idea actually... might be a good way for you too use your current skills in AGS... also... and we come to the blatent real reason for this post
