got my (non animated, cause I am being realistic here and need to focus on code) sprite sheet up and ready, and mapped, next is to do some polygon magic to set bounding boxes

for those who are not in the know, the gimp and most other image packages have the option to do “web slicing” which in the gimp fires up a window and you can outline what you want and it spits out a plain text file for use on the web with xy coords, along with rectangle and circle you can also do polygons, which makes it point n click easy to slice up a sprite sheet and define bounding “boxes”

I am no artist, but if you know your vector image editor (inkscape in this case) and a little bit of image editor (gimp in this case) you to can produce some meh sprites heh
