Ok, I suggested  32x32's because when I played area 51, it actually had 
crosshairs flash on the screen to where you had just shot.  I did think about 
the multiple death things, injury frames.  I'm going to make them fall on the 
floor and die for about 2-3 seconds and then fade out.  Well, i'am going to 
try to do what area 51 does.  Use FMV and place bitmaps of enemies along the 
way.
