Uneven spaces for sprites needed

The app is great but there is something with the tiles that I need help with, there are a series of sprites that I have that when put together have uneven sizes when I try to put them in animation that they're cut off via trim, I need help.
Not sure what the hype is about

Can't upload from Dropbox and saving new names makes the file name spaz out between the old name and new name, so this app isn't functional. 5 bucks is a lot too, so I contacted the dev and got a response back soon but now he just acts like money grows in trees! When importing from db you can't browse around and find files and when you try to open in sprite something from another app the app closes, so it can't import existing files. I don't understand why the good reviews, I guess you never know what you're going to get until buy it huh?!
Acceptable

Horrendous UX, this app badly needs the eye of a good designer, and a lot of refinement for its drawing related user flow. That said, the app does what it's supposed to do, and has a few useful, unexpected features. I was going to write a similar app for myself, but this is good enough for my purposes. For long-term use, let's see if I can just bite the bullet and get through the awful interfaces.
Perfection!

I previously said that Sprite Something was the best, except that it didn't have dropbox compatibility. I was wrong. I found out that Sprite something does actually support dropbox, It was just in an unexpected place. If you can't find the "link to dropbox" button, just go to the + in the bottom right corner of the home screen. After you press the + button, an option will appear to "link to dropbox". After yo link dropbox, the option to export to your dropbox becomes available. Sorry to the makers of dropbox for missing that option before. I now rate Sprite Something the 5/5 stars that it rightfully deserves.
Bad Second impressions

this app was my new favorite for sprite sheet design. Easy to use interface, nice renderings and ability to see your animations. However After a few hours of use, not only have all my sprite sheets suddenly dissapeard after exiting the app -which I was prepared for in that I had a saved sprite sheet to my library- , the sprite sheets that I made IN THE APP ITSELF were "too big to be rendered" as in they were "718x1128" and the max size for a imported sprite sheet is 512x512 which leaves me unable to continue using this app knowing that I could lose all my work at any given time
Update

I have been using this app for years now...i use it to create sprites for a game I am currently a developer for. It would be fantastic if you could update the app with a rotate tool effect for artists who want to draw 45 degree angle sprites. Please consider this, and thank you for the app!

Do you poke pixels? Do you need a good tool, lovingly crafted by someone that understands the process intimately? This app has all the things for working in the retro 8 and 16 bit aesthetic (what I use it for), for your .ico on websites, and similar.
Perfect for tablets and phones!

I've used this a few times and have had great success. Creating frames for animation is easy, and you have a variety of sizing options available. Great in conjunction with a simple game engine like Game Maker.
Sprite Something has it all.

Canvas sizes up to 1024x1024, multitouch gestures for tools, frame by frame animation and exporting to DropBox, plus it now has layers! Layers is a huge addition and all of you beginners and professionals alike will find it tremendously useful. Sprite Something has it all. Simple design is a breeze to navigate and runs quick on iOS 7. These developers listen to feedback and respond to emails too, genuinely helpful and fixed all the past issues I've ever encountered. Having used this for many in-depth pixel projects, I have to say, you won't find a more feature rich pixel art creation app with frame by frame animation that tops this one. Incredibly powerful. (Also, once you fall in love with it like I did, check out Sprite Something in the Mac App Store. It makes it easier for bigger projects with tons of frame by frame animation.)
