Where could I get licenses for my sprites, tilesets and my game (but has credit) for my game?

you hire someone to make you sprites and tilesets and create a contract. that contract becomes the basis for the license

+1 to Fabio
Although if you need to credit a company like Enterbrain,just credit them like Robin did with Crystalshire.

Well I am the spriter, so how do I get license for my work?

Make the contract with yourself.

Or, you can use a creative commons license…not sure how much of a "license" they are, though.

I just want my sprites so that they cant be stolen if they can I can actually have a threat. I don't like people using my sprites that I work my but off for my game, then people just take em…

You get used to it. People steal your stuff regardless of how much weight you can put behind your threats. There's simply nothing you can do.

Just keep in mind that if someone is so shit at making video games that they need to go behind your back and try and use your stuff then the game they make will be terrible.

Or just take down the servers of anyone who steals your stuff. ;]

I also suggest a creative commons if you're not willing to pay, then you choose how much of the copyright that you want, i use it for my stuff and noone has stolen it yet!

If people don't steal your work it's just not very good.
