What's your favorite "pixel-drawing" software?

I thought back, and ralised that the most fun I've had when it comes to drawing things on computers was with deluxepaint on my old Amiga. It was really easy editing a drawing pixel by pixel on it. I tried the wsame approach in photoshop, and well, it just feels way bulky to work it that way. Paint is... well... paint... so it's limited to say the least...

Here's the question again: Do you use some special software for pixel editing, which is your favorite? :)

My drawing arsenal consists of 3 parts at the moment. Photoshop, Illustrator and Mandala Painter 3 (crazy fun, limited in usefulness though. :) )

PSPX2, Photoshop CS4, Apophysis, Twisted Brush, Xara 3D Pro, FilterForge all for different things a lot of it after digital photos from camera Pentax 750z, a30 or Canon 980IS. My old photos on slides from Minolta XD7 and XE1 so these need lots of TLC and photoshop CS4 is best for these with Dekes book.
