Cool! The beta is nice, but the windows icon for windows 7, is really bad looking. I mean, really bad.

Yeah, it does.

Can you tell us which words or screens where you're seeing the apostrophes? Thanks!

There's already a topic about this glitch, but I'd thought I'd post it here. When you change the color of a block and hit apply, the text in the upper-right corner overlaps. (More here.)

Please add in a link in order to download any projects as documents and upload them to the editor so we can play games offline, do you guys think you will do that Scratch Team?

I found a way to upload projects from scratch offline. all you have to do is save the project, open a new project on the web and upload over it, make sure its a blank project. and there you go. It may seem obvious for some of you but I personally couldnt find out how to share projects because the share button doesnt work.

Scratch team, please do not rely on libraries that aren't available for all operating systems. I am on Ubuntu Precise Pangolin 12.04, and adobe (for some strange reason) is not making adobe air for linux anymore. I just wanted to let you know, and I really would appreciate if you had used a library that was open source. I much prefer compiling things from the source code.

I know You went to a lot of trouble to make scratch for us, and I truly appreciate it. I have been gone for a while, learning python, lua, and other programming languages. I just remembered that the offline scratch editor was coming out sometime this summer, so I decided to come have a look. Sadly, I can't do that since adobe no longer adobe no longer supports air for linux.

Good news. But wait, will there be an OFFLINE installer?

Millions of PCs are not online. How would they install Scratch 2.0?

Dude, that's the only way you ever install things from.

It's not like MIT is gonna send you a CD ROM of it

Try Wine. It should work (winehq.org).

Not here much, but sometimes I lurk.

Yaaaaay!

Get ready for the bug complaints, Scratch Team, it's gonna get wild

When I open sometimes it does not load.

The fact that it uses Adobe Air is bad for us Linux users. What will you use/do?

We can use wine but not everyone wants to.

Awesome! I am a bit disappointed that you can still only use the default texts, but I know that the scratch team is working hard to make this happen

I don't like wine. It is just hit or miss whether it works or not, and it just isn't very stable.
