I've been using 10x10 graph paper for plotting major minecraft designs for a while now, and I absolutely love this stuff. Each square inch is a 10x10 grid (rather than the standard 4x4 most graph paper uses) and the tens have a darker line so counting large numbers of lines is quicker.
Plotting things yet to come:

Heh, seems a bit old fashion to me, but whatever floats your boat. I'd just use ms paint and zoom in to do stuff like this. It's a pixel editor so it's pretty much perfect for this.

Excel can also be used if you resize the cells into squares, and there are a few online graph paper sites.

I like this method, because I can sketch a curve (say for a support arch) a few times until it looks like a proper load-bearing arch, then use the grid to approximate that curve with squares (notice the sketched curve on the right side of the bottom sheet) and duplicate for symmetry. That's a little harder to do in paint or the like. In any case, it always seems easier to me to just have a pad of graph paper next to my computer and sketch stuff out quickly, rather than going back and forth between Minecraft and another program. To each their own, I suppose. Although, now that I think about it, I have worked out pixel art stuff for Minecraft in paint once or twice before. Architectural and lighting stuff is always graph paper though.
