Export the charsets in the RTP, check their sizes, and try to fit around the same. =P

each sprite should take up the same amount of blocks. 

Example: Sprite Template
  --- --- --- ---
 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | Moving Down
  --- --- --- ---
 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | Moving Left
  --- --- --- ---
 | 9 | 10| 11| 12| Moving Right
  --- --- --- ---
 | 13| 14| 15| 16| Moving Down
  --- --- --- ---

Each one should take up 1 block if this is how big your sheet.
 
Do you get it or do you need more help?
