Hello everyone!!!

I'm new in Wintermute engine. I discovered it from the game "Hamlet". I know that in Wintermute have a sprite editor but I like to know a good program for making sprite 2d. Thanks!!!

You'll need a 2D paint app or a 3D app to produce still renders. Well known free 2d apps are gimp(bitmap editor), inkscape(vector) and artweaver(bitmap paint). For free 3D app you can look blender.

If maybe you wanna do something close to pixel art (or maybe even close to resoultion of Broken sword 1&2 games), you might wanna try Graphics gale.
The free edition can't export animations, but you can save individual gif/jpg/bmp etc. and it has an onion skin tool (you see frames before and after etc.
makes it easier to animate).
If you still want a whole animation you can combine that with Beneton movie gif animator. Google search for them, both are free and rather easy to use.

As a good and effordable package for creating 2D Artwork and animated Sprites I used to use JASC Paint Shop Pro and JASC Animation Shop. I think JASC has been bought by Corel, and Paint Shop has been combined with Photo Paint -- but as far as I know, Animation Shop does still exist.

Wait ... here it is: http://www.corel.com/servlet/Satellite/us/en/Product/1152105040771#tabview=tab0.

Hmm, they stopped developing it, it has support neither for Windows 7 nor for Vista. If you're using XP, I think it's worth the $20.
