What is sprite cow?

Sprite Cow helps you get the background-position, width and height of sprites within a spritesheet as a nice bit of copy­able css.

What do we need it?

Auto­mated spritesheet gen­er­a­tors are pretty cool, but I pre­fer the con­trol over opti­mi­sa­tion and com­pres­sion you get by mak­ing them manually.

How­ever, copy­ing all the posi­tions & sizes from graph­ics apps wasted a ton of my time, so I made this!
