I see a lot of mods making cool guis and dont get me wrong, they dont just edit it pixel by pixel especially the inventory. Do these modders use a program or they just use tool, armor, entity texture makers like photoshop or gimp.

Could you provide a sample screen of what kind of GUIs you're talking about ? I might be interested in it ! :)

 

Personally, I just recycle some existing GUIs from Minecraft. For instance, there is the demo_background.png located in the Minecraft assets (textures/gui). It helps me to prototype a canvas for a beginning. Still, I am really curious of how do other developers achieve their GUIs (especially when we are not specialized designers haha).

I made a custom inventory GUI using Gimp. I started with the vanilla texture, then selected parts of it and moved them around. Some of it is pixel-by-pixel work. That's how I did the little arrows on my GUI, attached. I expect those four slots at the top of the screen you posted were done pixel by pixel, just like many item and block textures are done. Kind of tedious, but not too bad considering each inventory slot is only 16x16 pixels.

Also, make sure your texture is 256x256 (you can leave the non-UI parts fully transparent)

Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable.  If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME.  Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice.

DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.
