[prepare for semi-long response]

Thank you for that Obsidian!

Morgul, you need, of course, a program to design the texture. GIMP is a popular program a lot of people seem to use (although I've never actually tried it). I personally use Pixelmator for Mac. I used to use Pixlr : it's entirely browser-based, no need for installation, so that's an option as well (if you don't want to install anything).

Next, you're going to need to know what you are texturing (may it be a weapon, armour set, etc.). From there, you'll need to use the Brush tool using the smallest possible size, and preferably in a square shape. In some programs (like Pixelmator) there is a dedicated Pixel tool designed for this. From there it's kinda straightforward: draw the thing you want in pixels.

That's pretty much a basic run down, but there's still more to it. Catch me on the live chat some time, and I can give you better help.
