How to rip sprites?

[Garamonde]

I think he's just asking about the very basics of it, so grab VBA, and AnimGet (make sure VBA's window size is at x1 -- "Options > Video > x1"), which will take screenshots of the emulator screen for you. But before you start ripping make sure the layers are disabled except the sprites you want (number keys 1 through 5). Then you cut the sprites from the screenshots and put them on a sheet. That's mostly all there is to it.
