How It Works
Canvas-Based Image Processing:
Our sprite sheet generator uses HTML5 Canvas API for client-side image processing and combination:
- Image Loading: All selected images are loaded using FileReader API
- Layout Calculation: Grid dimensions are calculated based on your settings
- Canvas Creation: A large canvas is created to accommodate all sprites
- Image Positioning: Each image is drawn to its calculated position with proper spacing
- Export: The final sprite sheet is exported as a PNG file for download
Features & Benefits:
- Privacy: All processing happens in your browser - images never leave your device
- Transparency Support: Maintains alpha channel for transparent backgrounds
- Flexible Layout: Customizable grid arrangement and spacing options
- Game Ready: Perfect for 2D game development and texture atlases
- Web Optimized: Reduces HTTP requests by combining multiple images

Frequently Asked Questions
What image formats can I upload to create sprite sheets?
You can upload PNG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, and WebP image formats. The tool will automatically combine them into a single PNG sprite sheet with transparency support. For best results, use PNG images with transparent backgrounds.
How many images can I combine into one sprite sheet?
There's no hard limit on the number of images, but we recommend keeping it under 50 images per sprite sheet for optimal performance. Large sprite sheets with many images may take longer to process and result in very large file sizes.
Can I control the size and arrangement of sprites in the sheet?
Yes! You can customize the number of columns, padding between sprites, cell dimensions, and background color. The tool offers both automatic sizing based on your images and fixed cell sizes for uniform grids.
Will the sprite sheet maintain image quality and transparency?
Absolutely. The tool preserves image quality and transparency when combining images. The output is always a PNG file which supports alpha transparency, making it perfect for game sprites and web graphics.
How do I use the generated sprite sheet in my projects?
Once downloaded, you can use the sprite sheet in games by calculating sprite positions based on your grid settings. For web development, use CSS background-position to display individual sprites. The tool provides pixel coordinates for easy implementation.
