History of TSR?

[Ton]

Bacon started Ninsprites in... 2001, I think? He and Teeks (Formerly Toadkarter) had their own little site going up. I was just getting into spriting, submitting stuff to TSGK and Deek n Dazz, and Psyguy's site when he was doing sprite comics.
Ninsprites's aesthetic was really cool. It focused on Nintendo, updated daily, had a cool icon scheme going, etc. so I started submitting. Pixeltendo followed, and the forums were modded by Bacon, his friend Rogultgot, and JonEx. Teeks kind of drifted off (And now runs Adamant Ditto with former members Meta, Joshr, and, from time to time, Silverbolt), and the site got bigger.
After a few years and a few expansions, including accepting stuff other than Nintendo, Bacon got sick of running the site. He gave it to Badassbill, who, while well-intentioned, didn't really do anything with the site for about a year or so.
While BAB was in charge, Dazz joined and soon had a falling out with Deek. BAB gave Dazz the site, the Ninsprites loyalists (Rog and a few others) threw a shit fit, which eventually led to the closing of Pixeltendo and the rehaul of the site.

I think that's the highlight reel.
