Puggsoy, thanks for the background remover, it may come in handy in some places as you said.
On this subject though, I should probably ask: is there an easier way to crop a shitton of screencaps at once and arrange them in bounding boxes than what I specified earlier?

Well what I do is import them all into GIMP as layers (not one by one just draged them all in), and then crop the image (which crops all the layers too). I found a plugin that exports all layers as PNGs, so then it just exports them all at once, and that's that.

Not sure if the cropping works the same in Photoshop (from your method above it sounds like it does). Apparently it can export layers as images (File -> Scripts -> Export layers to files...), I'm not sure what version you have but I think versions earlier than CS4 can't export to PNG. You can probably find plugins online for versions that can't, here's one for CS3.

As for the bounding boxes: not sure. If you want I can try and make an option for it in Background Remover. If the sprite stays stationary during the animation, all the frames would be positioned correctly relative to each other, so it'd probably work if you use it properly.
