Then go away and/or don't post sprites.

No, it's really not a start. It takes very little effort to recolor anything. If it does, you're doing it wrong. Recoloring doesn't help develop spriting skills. At all. It doesn't even help you learn how to pick palettes. At least not anymore than a healthy study of color theory does.

If you wanna become a spriter or at least have the ability to make sprites, you need to practice both customs and edits. But to do that, you need to get a good grasp on form, shape, definition, and of course, color. Edits are fine, but don't just add a limb or paste Mario's head onto Pikachu's body and call it a sprite. And don't just rotate Sonic's leg 25 degrees clockwise and call that art either. Try and be a bit more original and put more effort into what you do.

If you're gonna post "sprites" here, you're indirectly labeling yourself a spriter and you're showing us stuff juss to be criticized. We can't criticize recolors and minor edits, so don't bother showing them off as if we're gonna praise you, okay?
