After seeing DHH's keynote at RailsConf and http://37signals.com/svn/posts/2336-using-css-sprites-with-rails-helper-methods, I decided to try and build a better Sprite Generator. I don't want to bias any potential reviewers, so that's all I'll say for now. If this gets a good response, I'll post some further details in a few hours.

Your web application looks quick, simple and to the point. I like it!

File uploads are terrible.

I was looking for the single textbox where you could paste an URL and the generator would then crawl either that page (or the page and all its subpages) and produce a montage of all images found, along with the corresponding CSS.

Now that would have been not only possible but really simple!

I wish this could be done server-side.

In Rails maybe you could put all of your images in one directory, as an initializer or on demand it would create a sprite image, and it could automatically handle the rest as well.
