What do you mean access it? Well, here is how I get the sprites (I'm on a Mac):
Find the sprites you need/want
View image
Save image to desktop (easier access)
Open in Scratch
Or, if they need some editing:
Find the sprites you need/want
View image
Save image to desktop (easier access)
Open in GIMP
Make as many smaller copies as needed
Import to Scratch
Offline
