I have heard of these sprite sheets, and i have found some, but how do you make them into icons for BYOND?

You mean, .bmp or .pgn files? You'll have to take the icons and re-edit them into byond. Unless the spacing is all right, in which case you can use the 'split picture' function when importing a picture in Dream Maker.

Yeah, that would be quite helpful, gif formats may work, i'm not too sure, as i make all my icons in the DM editor.

Same... I normaly only import some things which are easyer done on other programs- like title screens or 10x10 houses or stuff like that.

nope...it's just a matter of educating yourself.. It's pretty easy to make some nice looking icons but you gotta know the technique... at any rate it still takes a long time to make characters and dynamic tiles... I can give you some links if you like..
