Turn the grid on in your art package, set the grid to 16*16 or 32*32 make a selection around either all of the ships, or 1 at a time, and paste them into their own window. Now save them. If you save them all in one go then you can write a routine to grab them of a bitmap because they a evenly spaced, and easy to grab.

Edit: Best not to post bmp's, post jpg instead.

Edit: Edit: I've seen those sprites before somewhere.

It's a stange mistake to make being as you have to type the word sprites into the editor to get them to work.

are you using DBP? if you are you can get just one image and use rotate sprite it works in real time(no slow down)

if you need to get each picture that first row starting point is 45,358 and there 30x30 pictures.

No mocking intended.
