or both but the program you need is called
Alfred Spritesheet Unpacker
.



7 example folders are
C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\Sprites\NES\Mega Man V

C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\Sprites\SNES\Mega Man VII

C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\Sprites\

C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\Sprites\SNES\

C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\Sprites\SNES\Super Metroid\Maridia

C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\Sprites\SNES\Mega Man VII\Cloud Man Stage Sprites

C:\Documents and Settings\Jason\Sprites\NES\Mega Man IV\Pharaoh Man



Basically this sprite sheet request of mine
is download and use
Alfred Spritesheet Unpacker
to rip all sprites from sprite sheets from any website
that contains
spriters-resource.com/
as part of its website address
and then put the ripped sprites in appropriate folders
and then put the folders with ripped sprites in a folder
and then put ^ such a folder in a .zip folder
and then upload the .zip folder in an unedited post(s) of yours in this thread.



You can record and upload a video to
show the .zip file being downloaded then scanned
such as with http://www.virustotal.com/
then unzipped and show the images and others in the folders in the
unzipped folder.



^ For help please click on the two

ummmm
ZCE are you suggesting we take every spritesheet ever hosted on the sprite and cut them down with Alfred Spritesheet Unpacker?

because uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I'm not sure if we've got enough lifetimes for that on the entire resource to do that.

Not saying "LOL we lazy" but more like "That's a really really unfathomably large and unrealistic project"
So, for anyone interested in attempting this... project? I should point out that downloading the 100,000+ sheets (ignoring the fact that a large number are zip files that would need to be extracted as part of the process) will require around 550 GB of free space before attempting to zip them meaning you'll need about 1.1 TB free to both download and create the zip file. Good luck!

Alternatively, you could of course just browse the already organized and searchable archive of sheets on the site. Just food for thought Smile
