Hi there.
Making sprites requires a lot of practice, so don't expect to make a masterpiece on your first try.
Google for some tutorials.
As for programs, I use Microsoft Paint.

A cartoon-like sprite? I thing you should make a very wide black line as *** (forgot name) and use some strong colors, like red, yellow, brown, purple,white, blue and green.

For cartoon sprites, don't go for detailed shading, keep it basic, use dithering if you have to, though.

That was probably one of Thanatos' mods, as I remember him saying the same thing, and it was in fact about Thunder Toes. He's one of the few really good spriters we have here.
