Sprite is really fizzy though, sometimes that works against it. It also makes me burp like crazy, which can be a good thing because I’ve learned to control it so I can burp on command for about an hour or two after downing a bottle.
One thing I experimented with when I worked at Marble Slab Creamery were interesting floats/ice cream sodas…I found that Sprite and raspberry ice cream made an absolutely wonderful and refreshing product. Mmmmm, I miss the free sweets.
I don’t get how to make a sprite, basically it’s a little piece of pixel art, but how do you make it semitransparent (which wikipedia says sprites are) and stuff? Can you give an example?
I got nailed by a nasty virus-puppy recently which lead to severe vomiting and diarrhoea. This hit me at around midnight so we were caught without having any medicine type stuff in the house. By two in the morning I was running on empty when Beloved came up with the inspired idea of mixing some Sprite we had in the fridge with water.
The resulting unbrew not only tasted rather yummy, it also stayed down and made me feel a lot better.
I did go to the medicos the next morning and ended up on a drip to sort out the dehydration issues, but it would’ve been worse if I didn’t have the Sprawter.
Wow, thanks for taking something serious and turning it into bullshit. Very nice of you people. Even after the line that said (i want to be taken seriousy) it didnt occur to you this wasnt the most replys thread?
On a more serious note;
Spriting is basicly just art in pixel form.
Pixel art.
The sprite (or picture) cannot be semi transparent unless you use a program that senses a certain color to be transparent.
An example of a sprite:

or ( the best thing to start fooling around with)
Mario
Play around with the mario sprite. just take the first frame and add little things until you are satisfied. That will start you out. then you can create a unicycle sprite eventually!
