Hello :)
I am trying to copy the tile size of an old game that sadly no longer exist. So I am trying to revive it for a giggle. CHECK OUT THIS REAL TIME EXAMPLE OF MY PROBLEM! Change between the two sprites and increase/decrease the width and height of the Tile spawn: http://codepen.io/schoening/full/hclEt - http://codepen.io/schoening/full/hclEt This is the tiled grid I want to end up copying: It's 18x18 tiles 
The dimensions are: 722 x 375, so I divided them into 18 x 18 squares: 722 / 18 = 40.111... 375 / 18 = 20.833... So I rounded it up and got 40x21 tile. When I am tiling it with a 40x20px distance it seems to fit perfect. 
But that means they are overlapping. But I guess only on the Height? *scratch scratch* I suppose its fine if they overlap. Although I found this example where Number TWO seems to be the best solution: 
Sprites Compared: 40x20 Left and 40x21 Right 
Suggestions? How should by tile look ? |

| If you check out the example link, you will see how the 40x20 tile seems to only overlap on one axis |

Seems to work so far:
But if you have suggestions, go ahead. I would like the tiles to be perfect if possible ^^
