Let me put out some opinions. MS Paint is perfect for some pixel artists as it does force you to use the program as a pixel art program, and there are amazing things done in MS Paint. There aren't so much options for those who want to make Amiga art like those found in amiga.lychesis.net archive, and their only real option is something like GraFX2, and that program has glaring issue of looking like it's from the 80s, but it is nothing like the other program as it automatically index to palette when you do smoothing, and importing. Besides pixel art, MS Paint is ok to abandon in favor of other softwares.
We should not be comparing raster and vector form, but if one wants to move raster artist to vector programs, one might mention how vectors and unlimited resolution is the future of art direction, and in some way, Inkscape shows that. **Looks at the Inkscape gradient mesh painting tool, and overlays** Likely, gradient mesh, 3d mesh and painting will replace blocky pixels at some point when computers are very powerful to the point where vector art can be rendered as fast as raster photographs nowaday. NURBS is also slowly replacing polygons too for everything besides games, and animation.

Not sure. I got the ones you sent. They look nice. Although a bit small. Gives me some good ideas for what to do next (format/size)
But as for new stickers... not sure yet.
