What resolution are you going for? To make one from scratch instead of drawing over a terrain.png, make a grid of the right size and shape. I don't know what size that is though, sorry.
Also, don't use paint. It won't work. Google paint.net instead.
You can either start with the default texture pack or use someone else's texture pack as long as its compatible with the current generation of minecraft. Photoshop, GIMP and Paint.net are the three best programs available for it. Open up the texture files in them, edit them to your liking, then go into the folder they're all stored in. Select all the folders, right click, select "Add to .ZIP" (it should be an option. If not, download a file compression/ decompression software.) Once you have the file compressed, rename it what you want and add it to your texture pack folder.
thanks guys for all of your efforts so when i make it i will reply the name and the pack as soon as posible and try my hardest does anyone have any suggestions?
You can also get a pretty nice texture pack by taking pictures with a digital camera, cropping to a particular area you like, resizing it to 16x16, and then pasting it onto terrain.png. This is good for the "artistically challenged" (like me) and also saves A LOT of time. You'll be spending a lot of time trying to figure out how to get it to tile, though.

That's terrible, even the, quote "artistically challenged", can make a texture pack.
Even I'm a bit "artistically challenged" and I'm doing pretty good.

zip it, get a free mediafire account and upload it..that way you can share it with anyone easily.
edit: and make sure not to zip it in a folder if you are using the new patcher
Dude, can you PLEASE use periods at least? Anyway yeah, use someone elses pack as a base. Compress it as a zip and upload the zip via mediafire. As for the artistic side, you really just need to know what your doing naturally.

it really is best if you come up with something you are interested in making..otherwise you aren't likely to see it through till it's done. would honestly suggest working with a 32x32 or 64x64 to give yourself more freedom to experiment with it all.
p.s. apologies for my rudeness with my first comment..I forgot to take my meds again..seriously
edit: my pack started because I wanted old timey furnaces and it escalated from there once I started to get the hang of it..started having fun doing it :tongue.gif:

Enjoy!
This is all you need to know about making your own stuff.
