Look, I don't often make custom sprites, but I very often edit them. I am trying to get my head right. I forget to think at times, and I try changing it as fast as I can. It's really hard to edit, let alone make sprites.

I know what you're saying, Steven. I just want this character to be in SSF2 as an expansion SO badly. That and I just want to show what I can do. You're right, nothing's easy. I can't really make a custom sprite sheet on my own.

Okay but here is the catch; there is nothing wrong with that don't worry.

You just got the therms mixed up a bit, or .. well, the general understanding of it. Most people take 'edited' as 'made new poses and aleteredposes' in context. What you did is adding blur and turning some sprites clockwise. In retrospect this would count, yes, but in the world of spriters it's considered 'too light of an edit to actually be an edit'. Honour among thieves.

But hey, CoM is not the easiest style and spriting isn't super-easy either, so if you never did it then don't feel bad if it didn't work.

if you did not make a sprite out of no sprite, it is not custom
if you have any sort of pre-existing sprite that you worked from, it is an edit

and if you barely do anything with the sheet other than arranging frames, that's not even editing

The sprites are re-arranged.

This sprite sheet was a personal project that took me days to complete. Basically, I took a smaller sprite sheet and turned it into something bigger.

I'm capable of making sprites, but as I said, I don't do it often. I remake/edit sprites more often than that.

No one said you can't sprite. They are just trying to clarify to you that taking someone else's work and arranging it to a sheet and then saying you've edited the sprites is the same as claiming them as your own. You would have done nothing but move a few pictures around. Editing things requires more work than that. I wouldn't call anything an edit unless at least 50% of the sprite has been altered or you've created an entirely new pose for already existing sprites.

I don't claim the sprites as my own, there are new poses, you don't really see them (mainly because they're upper body), and I can sprite if I had enough time.

Then post some stuff that you have done. You don't have to do it all at once. I, myself only spend a little bit of time doing sprites because I get bored after a little while of doing it. Even if it doesn't turn out all that well, if you post it here we can critique it for you and help you get better.

How about a custom character, rather.

Stephen who?

This really sounds like you've gotten completely-off topic on your own sprite topic.

There is something new.
