How to Create a Sprite Sheet From PNG
A character in a 2D video game, such as Mario, from "Super Mario Brothers," is known as a "sprite." Unlike backgrounds, sprites usually move in video games, and may have a corresponding animation. These animations go on a sprite sheet. The simplest sprite is made up of only one image, and it will not appear to change during the progress of the game. For example, even if a sprite moves, it won't appear to be walking.

1
Launch a graphics editing program. Create a new document. Set the size to 32 pixels wide by 24 pixels high. This will give you room for one sprite on your sprite sheet. Check the box for "Transparent Background" if one exists.

2
Zoom in so that you can create your sprite in detail. You'll want to use the "Pencil" tool with a diameter of one pixel to draw the sprite. This will give you the most flexibility.
