This is a great program for making pixel art of any type. No doubt in my mind that I'd recommend this. It's only about 7 Megs of RAM (pretty lightweight). It may not have all the effects of Photoshop, GIMP, or Paint.net, but it's VERY nifty and well worth the download. :D
This is PC variant of some PhotoEditor's (https://alternativeto.net/software/photo-editor-1/) function. This application works with true ARGB colors (RGB color and value for opacity) and his color picker can take color in format with transparency.
