What do you use spriters-resource sprites for (Please read all of first page's post)?

I love collecting sprites because I was introduced to funny sprite animations online and thought that they were something I wanted to make; my interest has ebbed and flowed overtime, but I still collect sprites in the hopes of making a sprite animation of my own one of these days.

I also study sprite art as I would any artform, in the hopes of understanding their aesthetics and making something with its beauty or function.
