Hey all.. I have a favor to ask.. Could someone please take a look at this tutorial..

http://www.dspassme.com/programmers_guide/Tutorial/using_tiles.html

..and explain to me how to make tiles as it says using Windows? I tried getting GIMP but still had trouble with it. I have Adobe Photoshop CS as well if I can use that.. Thanks to anyone that can help..

And if anyone could tell me any other tutorials I should read to start me doing some graphics on the DS that would be great.

Thanks.

There was a tutorial on Pixel Art somewhere, but I've since lost the link. A great tool for tile based graphic would be Usenti from Cearn Space. It's an all purpose palette based graphics tool mainly designed for use with the GBA.
