My bad, but you really can't. I've tried.
Also I did not mean to offend you.

I've used print screen to make my own sprite sheets of sprite-based games. It's tedious, but it works well if you're patient.

If you want sprites from a fangame or a small-scale indie game, you could try contacting the people who originally made the game. They might be willing to help you out - especially if you're polite and you make it clear they're for non-commercial use.

@Ostrich101 The worst thing that could (realistically) happen is they'll just tell you no - or simply ignore your message. As long as you're polite, I doubt they'll cuss you out or laugh at you or send ninja assassins to your home.

What does "No" mean in this context?, are you saying ripping sprites from fan-games is not a good idea?

Why are you worried about the people being rude or using bad language without having tried to contact them yet and without knowing anything about these people? If you assume everyone in the world sucks then you won't talk to anyone and you won't get anything.

Someone using swear words doesn't automatically make him a mean person. Anyway I doubt he'd be throwing around a bunch of swear words in a response to you asking him if you can use his sprites, at least not in a way that's intended to be rude. If you don't like people using swear words in general around you, there's not a lot you can do about that. Just don't use them yourself and, if it gets to a point that makes you uncomfortable, just let the person know that it does and if he's respectful he will tone it down when talking to you. Otherwise it's out of your control as there is no way to control what comes out of someone else's mouth.
If he is rude then just forget about communicating with him; If he's nice then you got what you wanted. There's really no harm that can come from asking something like this.
