 * Ahem* . No, it isn't. A sprite is an easy to manipulate image that moves (like things in video games). Not to mention that your Julie "unpixel" isn't ACTUALLY an unpixel, because it was made by somebody who hand-drew it with simple pixels. Just having pixels doesn't make it an unpixel.

An unpixel is a piece of art made by somebody with lines made up of one-pixel pieces. Rather than being a hand-drawn pixel art like Bry's example of Julie, it is actually commonly known as "tracing" in the real world :P It's more acceptable here though because it does make things easier to edit like Bry said. It appears that I've been mislead. My bad, DF. TBH, when I first started back in 2011, I thought they were called "Sprites" too :p a bit of research (and Roads ranting at me all the time xD) led me to find out what the two terms actually meant.
