Good to know, I'll keep that in mind.

Ok, I'll teach you. But you need Fighter Factory in order to perform ripping the sprites and getting rid of the backgrounds. Basically, just open the character or the character's sprite file (SFF) from Fighter Factory. And then, once you're on the sprite section, select "Activate Transparency" on the left side of the screen. If the character's palette is ok, the background of the character should be removed. If not, press "Shared Palette" twice. However, for the shared palette technique, it will only remove a select set of sprites of the character, so you need to do this for every sprite or set, so it's pretty long and tedious. Then, select sprites on the top toolbar and select "Save all sprites as PCX". From there, you select the location of where you want to save the sprites. (I'd recommend a folder of the character's name) You can save them in PCX, GIF, BMP, and JPEG formats. Then, when you write the name for the sprites, the name will be the same for all the sprites, as in: RyuSprite000, RyuSprite001, etc. Also, these sprites will be saved individually, not on one big sheet. And one last thing, when you're planning on using activate transparency on stages, don't do it, some portions of the stage may become gray and defy its original palette. Hope this helped. If you have anymore questions, just post them on this page.

Thanks.

Just hope it turns out well, and don't worry, I will.
