may I say, I still don't have an avatar and I'm cool with it. Who needs those? It's not like they are a real picture of you anyway(in most cases)
Oh, I'm sorry, did I break your concentration?

Avatars just make it easier to keep track of who's who, because our forgettable account names aren't always enough.

Well, Sprite can be found in many Refrigerators.

I'm afraid Hulavuta's right, Aethaeryn...

Sprite=Refrigerator

That's awesome logic.

I need a new refrigerator, while I'm in a learning mood. I should learn how to build one from scratch.
:annoyed: I'm gonna break the lock to state this:

1] The likelihood of someone doing a sprite for you, for free, is nil, unless we're a real good friend of yours. It's much like larger drawings when someone else draws your OC - random strangers are very unlikely to do it, but friends are likely to. With 2 posts on this forum, you're unlikely to be friends with anyone here unless you've been lurking.

2] Given that, your only option is to pay for it, or make it yourself. It's a matter of how important spriting could be to you as a potential skill. In the case of anyone seriously thinking about making videogames, I would actually strongly suggest they do learn to do sprites, and to do art, on their own, because they're [censored] up a creek on any project they embark on if they can't provide such a necessary asset for a videogame. Artists are usually the bottleneck for free/indie projects.

But if you're just dabbling, then yes, it's obviously not worth it, and either you need to pay someone, or live without.
