SpriteMeister CSS Sprite Generator

A CSS sprite toolset for developers

The first developer tool set released by Imagisma, LLC. I am a cofounder and lead designer for this startup focusing on producing tools for software and deployment engineers.

Product Description:

Our SpriteMeister developer library provides you with a turn-key solution to generate sprites on the fly whenever you deploy your code.

Most Web developers are familiar with the priciples of high performance web sites and tools like YSlow and Page Speed, and realize the importance of using sprites to reduce the number of requests.

Developers working with sprites have all experienced the overhead of maintaining sprites manually. Wouldn't it be great not to worry about sprites at development time? Wouldn't it be great to be able to work with individual images until the site is ready for release, and to have a tool generate the sprites and point the style sheets to the generated sprites instead of the original images -- automatically as part of the build process? That's exactly what SpriteMeister allows you to do.
