Just making sure I still know how to make pixelart lol..
I've also just noticed that most people use a tablet at some point during the construction processes of larger pieces, something I've sturggled with since I've always used my mouse because I assume that is how everyone went about it.
I'll try to invest in a drawing tablet soon ,so I can get back into this.

The reason others use graphic tablets is because:
They digitaly draw what they are trying to make pixel art out of. Then they resize it or use other features to simply pixel art on top of their sketch. It's basically creating digital art and working backwards to the 16 bit era. I personally don't like the idea of using new age overkill tools for pixel art because if you're going to draw something as digital art, you might as well make digital art (like a painting) and ignore pixel art all together.
I prefer pixel art that is made as pixel art from the beginning simply to uphold some sort of nonexistent tradition, but then again... I will never know.
