Hello! - Shred Mako - 11-15-2014
Salutations one and all!
Excited to be here. While I'm new to the spriting community, I've been spriting personally for over 20 years! I recently had a run-in with an off brand SD card that devoured a big portion of my work during a laptop transfer. Fortunately they were just recolors and edits, and not any of my custom work. But, the event made me realize that I ought to make some of my work public for posterity. So, here I am! 
Plus, I am running into technical difficulties with the sprite ripping utilities, so, I thought it wise to turn to some who have a more advanced knowledge of the programs.

Welcome! Sorry to hear about that SD card eating your work. You've definitely come to the right place if you want a safe way to archive some of your stuff though. Having experienced (and recovered from) some of our own losses over the years, everything is backed up here regularly now.
