To answer all your questions:
CloudKid2k4: A sprite is a small image of a character, like the overworld RPG little guys and such.
Ace(Fox): The reason we battle is to level up. Everyone here has a good amount of maney and can heal easy. By battling each other, we level up and become stronger, so we can battle people outside of the clan and kick butt.
Kyoober: That is just plain disturbing, but yes, it does.
And to everyone: I have a lot of good sprite places bookmarked, I just need specific ones. Fox, a good Mario, Marth/Roy, and Kirby are all in demand.
Also, I have a banner request currently hanging around, but after that is done, I'd like to make a banner, (Or series of banners) for our Clan. Does anyone have any suggestions for them, or know anyone who can do them? If you or anyone else can make a banner for us, just PM me with a sample of your work. It would be greatly appreciated if you would. They would be simple to make, but I don't have the right software.
