Finally, a new update! Yeah, I'm pretty much all recovered from my little surgery a couple weeks ago, so it's back to the ol' SDB grindstone. Starting with this week's rather hefty update. Thanks to everybody who submitted something, and if there were any submissions I missed, just let me know and I'll make sure they get added right away.

Now then, a couple of neat links I was sent these past couple of weeks.

First is this list of 30 Excellent Resources to Help Hobbyists Make 8 Bit Sprites for Retro Games by Doctor Roboturtle. This is a great list of tutorials, resources, and references for making your own sprites. You should check it out if you're at all interested in spriting, as the list contains resources & information on both the technical and artistic aspects of the craft. And of course, SDB is on the list too which we appreciate very much.

Second is the really cool Kickstarter for 1x1 which is a set of "pixel stickers" you can use to bring your favorite sprites into the real world. If it sounds like something you'd be interested in, check it out and consider backing the project. I must say, it looks like you can make some pretty awesome stuff with 'em.

Welcome to another SDB update. The new rips are below, so feast your eyes and ears on 'em.

Now, you may remember back in early August I mentioned I was having some bad stomach pains. Well, after quite a few tests and appointments the doctors decided I do, in fact, need my gallbladder out so I'm having that done this Monday. It's actually a pretty simple procedure - they let you go home the same day and everything. But if I don't post an update next week, that's why. Just thought I'd let everybody know.

Hey hey L's and G's. We're back with a new update, one that also introduces a new site feature - extra large icons! Now, large sprites and other types of images can have much bigger icons, allowing you to get a much better preview before clicking them.

Of course we'll still use the old icon size for most smaller sprites. But if there are any old sprites you think should be converted to the new format, let us know right here.
