how can i copy and past only one sprite from a sprite sheet.

[olegharput]

I have a  disordered sprite sheet which includes many sprites and i need only 4 of them, the size of the sprites are 18x16 px., i have created a new image (72x16) how can i copy 4 of those sprites in there?

Is it possible in Gimp?
Which tool i need to choose?

For 4 sprites, use the rectangle selection on the source to select a sprite, then Edit>Copy, then move to the target and use either Edit>Paste or Edit>Paste as>New layer. Plenty of ways to position them, grid, guides, or the Align tool.
