Paint just plain sucks.And is no good for planets. I tried autorealm but that's just annoying.

Eh, paint works pretty well in my opinion actually. Check my map (Link is in the link in my profile). I did it entirely with paint and I think it turned out fine. Although it's just a political map... nothing special.

As for planets... I can't help you there...

you could use a game that has a map-building mode and then take screenshots. Civilization 2 is a good example.
