Dunno about any programs that converts direct to sprites, but you can use a convert program that converts your pc-picture to c64-bitmap and then use multiconverter on c64 to convert parts of the picture to sprites.

ohh i was about layersprites. The best way to convert is to write an own C-program which do that. |

Just convert your picture to 8 colors in PhotoChop, or as many colors as you have sprites.. Then you can extract 8 different 2-color pictures from that, and convert them with your custom pc->c64 converter.. Then go sprites.
Hmm.. a bit of a hazzle, but i don't know any automatic tool. |

AS HCL suggested you can use most GFX PC tools.
I.e. im GIMP:
get cbm plugin
convert image of 24*n x 21*m pixels to 8 colors.
Select each color and maybe paste into a new layer.
Convert each layer to 1 bit image and save as sprite.
Since this kinda sucks, I recently wrote some python-script to do that. If anyone is in need, let me know.
(I know, oooold thread but just became interessting to me) |

I have been also looking for something similar lately, but I was more towards overlay sprite editor.
Is there any overlay sprite editor tool for the C64?
Best would be an editor which can handle multiplexing, so that you can have a big area to pixel on.
