Although sprites were used quite a bit back then, they were used back in the 90s when it came to HTML. Sprites were a bit like contact sheets of snapshots of characters used to animate motion in gaming, but sprites were adopted by HTML programmers to create rich-visual layouts and interactions for web pages without the need to load a ton of individual images.
