you don't have to... but it's the simplest program out there, so it's recommended.
just open it, pick a default color like pure black just to start, and with the pencil tool, draw something small (I'd say go for like 50 x 50 pixels in size as to not be too difficult), like a simple character or object (this step is called sketching), and try to clean it by erasing pixels that make lines jaggy and stuff with the eraser tool. then, try to pick another color that is closer to what your object uses, and with the flood fill bucket tool, fill your object with that color.

have you ever drawn anything digitally, btw? if you have, spriting is pretty much like that when you're starting a sprite. the rest of it requires careful pixel placement, knowing how to pick colors, and lots more.

try that, and show us what you come up with (but make a separate thread for it here)! we'll guide you from there. Smile
