Hello guys, am trying to see if i can create an animated skeletal 2d character from my animated 3d character using spriter. Please in case is not possible with spriter, can someone point me to any application that can do it.

Hi, Henry. You can edit your 3d model to be modular in your 3d editing program, so you can render separate parts easier into sprites that Spriter can use as parts. You can also just render your 3d model as-is, then use Photoshop or other program to cut it in parts and import into Spriter. You may need to draw some areas, where your parts were overlapping.  It really depends on what your character looks like now, what kind of animation it uses and the final result you`re looking for. You can even render your animated 3d model from your 3d modelling program to frames, then use them as guides in spriter. If you do so, this video may help you:

shadowslair is right. There is no automated way for rendered 3d animations or otherwise to become optimized 2d skeletal animations with Spriter (or any other 2d animation software I've heard of.) 
The workflow shadowslair recommended is the best there i to my knowledge.
