I was thinking about a new lesson each week, where I cover something different. I would like to do recoloring, edits, basic comics, and more advanced comics. Once I get better at animating, I'll cover that too.

I guess I can fit it into my schedule with bungee jumping with kings and playing Guitar Hero with millionaires.

Alright, I try to get the first official lesson up tommorow. I do recoloring. Also, even if you don't like Halo, required materials include this sprite sheet, the reason being MC is a very good sprite for beginners.
Now, since when I try to upload a pic, it comes out plurry, here is what I want y'all to do.
1. Go to Google
2. Type in "Halo Sprites" on image search.
3. You see a result like this:

4. CLICK IT!
5. Click This:

save the picture you see as a GIF.

Um, I'm a decent LttP spriter, I think. But I'm no teacher so nevermind.

Like I said before, I'm only using Halo right now becuase it is easy for beginners. We'll probably branch out into other kinds of sprites soon. There will be a test! :)

Hmm... How about Megaman Sprites?

Sprite sheets for all megaman games (http://pages.cthome.net/mnoni/webpage/spritesheets.html) as well as several other immensely popular games.
