[Petie]

Yeah, a sprite is basically any 2D image in a game. That means icons, characters, stuff like that. It can be both animated or unanimated, since you'd say that each piece of an animation is a "frame of a sprite".
That's how I understand it, anyway.

Actually, if my understanding is correct, each sprite would be a frame of an animation so you can use multiple sprites (i.e. the various poses of a character) to create a single animation.
