Hi Jeffrey, thanks for the compliment.
I wasn't thinking about ripping more from Blackthorne by now, cause I have other rips in mind that I want to do first.
The trick to rip Blackthorne's sprites is do it in a different level, not in the mines (lvl 1), that have drak backgrounds. I ripped Kyle in the forest level (lvl 2), where there is a green background layer that was easy to extract. In the desert, there is a blue layer that can serve too. Don't desable all background layers, keep the green/blue active and do the snapshots. (here the passwords of the game)

When you can't get a especific frame, I recomend programs like vSNES. Very powerful tool, but not as fast as take shots with the emulator.
Have a try and please give feedback.
