My Little Pony Sprites

[Cobalt Blue]

a sprite can easily be made of prerendered 3D models wich can use hundreds of colors as long as its system allows it(see mario kart 64). again, neither amount of colors nor gradients define what a sprite is. Instead, a sprite would be any 2D graphic/object (either animated or static) used by either the software or the hardware to represent an action on the display. so you'd rather identify what is an sprite by its functionality over its nature.

instead what i suspect is that we're in front of a blatalant trace.
