It kinda depends on the style that you're going for. If you're going for realistic, you're going to need to know some basic anatomy.

Heck, basic anatomy is important for any kind of image.
Today's indie sprite style is focused on bigger heads and tiny legs. accentuate the upper body more than the lower. The best thing you can do is look at references and see what you like.
