Now, I have looked at various of other peoples sprites and have come to be interested on making my own. All I am asking is if anybody has any information on making a sprite please post and share cuz I\'d really like to know. I have no idea how to make a sprite so... ya know.

Also, If theres a board about this already I didnt know so go ahead and delete this I guess.

Well personaly I like Inuyasha, but I\'d like to learn to make any sprite so that I can make my own.

sry, this might not be the right topic, but how do you post a saved pic?

It might be hard to find Inuyasha sprites, so you might just have to make some from scratch, but I don\'t recommend that for a newbie. I haven\'t even gotten to that level and I\'ve been spriting for nearly a year now. Anyways, if you really have your heart set on making Inuyasha sprites, look for sprites that are somewhat similar to the chacracters to use as a base. MegaMan sprites are not good for this. Find sprites of humans.

Ok, but how exactly should I start off? Do you need a program to make them or what?

You need atleast MSPaint. Thats what I use. If you don\'t have that, you need a paint program that can at least let you create custom colors, zoom in, fill in(the paint bucket), and do that eyedropper thingy. Sorry I couldn\'t be more descriptive. I\'m tired, I\'ve had no coffee, and school starts in like 20 minues:cry:

Worship their creator, as Mr.O.M.A. is awesome.

Oh, and for sprites, i suggest getting practice using Megaman (from Rockman and Forte) as a base, before moving onto the advanced stuff.

Alright, alright, now that I got what to use for it. So what do you mean pixel by pixel? I have seriously no clue on how to even take a sprite and recolor it!

I suggest you take a look at these 2 tutorials. The BnG one will help you figure out how to recolor(hopefully) and the second is a huge help on various ways to sprite.
Note* I didnt make them. Credit goes to creators.

are ya talking about a game i am confused.

No, we\'re giving advise to a fledgling spriter. This doesn\'t have anything to do with games directly, only indirectly.

(sorry in advance if i bumped an old topic)

Lets say that I have a custom sprite ready, and all of its movements are set on a sprite sheet (ex: recolor version of Zero from MMZ). How would i use MS Paint to animate it?

PY Software is good for animating, but after like, 15 uses, it starts adding the words \"DEMO MODE\" to the corner of your picture (which looks quite unproffesional) and does all this stupid stuff to make itself more inconvenient, like hiding a bunch of windows and making this completely useless ad bar. Over all though, it\'s very easy to use, and you can keep using the demo to animate if you don\'t mind the above.
