I didn't see anything in his question that said "should I".
dov: get a screen capturing program like "SnagIt", play the game you want the graphics from while it records, output to gif, import to MMF or TGF, then you have to erase everything around the part that you need.

For emulated games, you can in some emus turn off the different layers. Saves a lot of work removing the background.
- Ok, you must admit that was the most creative cussing this site have ever seen -
Make some more box arts damnit!

How to rip graphics in four easy steps:
1)Use either snagit or print preview
2)Compile your game
3)Post it on the DC
4)Hide in the corner as the Daily Click Members come to your house and disembowel you, then lift you up and hang you by your own intestines.
Sorry, but that's the truth. No one likes ripped graphics. I suggest you make your own.

Or you can press back and then forward to have it change colors too (for those without a F5).

I did make a sprite ripper for TGF games but I never published it. It was more of a test of my coding skills than anything else.
Ripping graphics from a click game without permission is an absolute no-no. Don't do it. Ever.
Ripped graphics from commercial games (eg: Nintendo) are generally accepted if the game is a fangame (eg: Zelda graphics in a Zelda game, Mario graphics in a Mario game, etc), but in few other occasions.
Until recently I tended to use premade explosion sprites but now I tend to either do particle effects or design my own.
Ripping is bad. If the worst comes to the worst, just ask clickers if they can send you their old abandonware games. You should be able to use their graphics if they let you.
This method is more noble and will get you far more respect than someone who just steals other people's work. It also means the sprites won't be well-known (if the games were abandoned then most of the sprites will be entirely new to most viewers).
