From Misc Data Digs

If you haven't heard of YouTube, it's very likely you're either from a country that bans the world's biggest video sharing site or you're living outside of a planet in the Milky Way Galaxy named Earth.

Spritesheets[edit | edit source]

There are many unused spritesheets still up on YouTube's servers. However, most of them are duplicates of each other, with different layouts due to YouTube's spritesheet. These spritesheets were used during the "Hitchhiker" design, but are still up. The names are randomized by YouTube's naming system, "VFL", which is open-source[1].
