actually asking how to isnt aganist the rules here
if the North American Man Boy Love Assocation can have a website that teaches someone how to molest a little boy, then its defiently not illegal for us to post how to break a copyright law, as long as we dont supply the copyrighted material or little boys, its not illegal

I would guess that its ok. Cos they show you how to run roms and isos on emulators. And how to rip them of the originals. I think the only think they cant do is provide you with links to the actual games. Not sure about tools to rip stuff. They provide VBA which you can use to save sprites.

quick and easy fix to gba sprite rip, push your screen capture keyword on VBA. Go to where the screenshot is, crop the character / other. Then do what you want with it.

i tried this method but it found it to tiring. Ive ripped the a sprites= from Crash Fusion of wompa fruit. It looks godod. Ive been using the oam memory thingy on VBA. Even this way was a little tiring. I had to save about 17 different sprites as .png then open them all and save them all as .gifs and remove the background color that automatic gets saved with them. The load them all in to GIF animator and save it. Not bad for my first try. Can i show it on here somewhere or is that deffiantly against the rules cos im still not sure about the forums rules on sprites.

well, hmm, i dont think well get shut down for you posting a .gif seeing as how some of us use those as avatars or siggys,

maybe you can use img shack and tell us hey, look at this gif i found :happy:
dont supply the sprites because thats wrong(some how?)
just look around the internet, pictures arent really illegal,
but dont ask, dont tell
