If your sprites are not too big (128x128 or less), xspred can do that quite nicely. It also -- here comes the easy part -- creates files that are already in Allegro's *.dat format. And it's good all around. There is a link to it on Shawn's home page http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/allegro/ , and I think I remember that it is on oulu as well. > A shareware program would be nice.. Well, xspred is free, but I don't think Antoine would mind you sending him money. Tom
