[ql-users] Sprite Collection now Available

[Timothy Swenson]

As I said in an earlier e-mail, I'm working on a project to collect sprites 
and make them available in one collection.  I've worked on this and now 
have the collection on my web page.  The sprites on in three zip files 
based on the Mode of the sprite and the source of the sprite.

QLSPRT4.ZIP  - Collection of 38 Mode 4 sprites gathered from QL 
sources.  Authors are attribited.

WNSPRT4.ZIP - Collection of 82 Mode 4 sprites that have been converted from 
Windows Icons.

WNSPRT16.ZIP - Collection of 485 Mode 16 sprites that have been converted 
from Windows Icons.

They are now available at www.geocities.com/svenqhj/myfree.html

I don't have the artistic ability to do a whole collection of my own 
sprites, so I figured using Windows Icons as a source would make for a 
quick and large collection.  The "icon" sprites in collection are not 
perfect and need some work to be good QL sprites.  Feel free to use them as 
a start for your own sprites.  If you modify them to make them better, 
please e-mail them to me and I'll add them back into the collection 
(probably in a new zip collection).

I'd like to thank Wolfgang Lenerz for writing BMP2SPR and for writing a 
program to convert Mode 24 sprites in to Mode 4 sprites.
