Questions about spriting; ???

I have a few questions about spriting. :confused:

1. How do you get it all just right? One of my prototype sprites looked nothing like Samus.

2. What program does everyone use?

3. How do you recolor a sprite? I'm recoloring a few for my unnamed, undeveloped fangame.

4. (if anybody uses this technique) How do you enlarge a sprite, recolor it, and size it down to the exact same size as before?

Any answers would be helpful! :metroid:

Recolors should be done by holding the right mouse button while using the eraser tool, or with the method covered in this topic.
