If it's art that's intended for a game, use outlines. If it's anything else, do whatever feels comfortable to you. The main reason outlines exist is to separate the form of a character from a like-colored background.

So really, outlines are only necessary for something that's going to be superimposed over different backgrounds. For a large piece of pixel art, this isn't a problem because the piece is only going to be used once.
