Actually, to fix the (%) variable walkback, after you x out of the error window, click the variable delete button, and delete the variable. It goes back to normal!

Hey one more thing. Would you mind if I used that video and sent it to my friends. I want them to consider playing or creating on scratch one day. So would you mind if I sent them your video.

Are you like part of the staff on Scratch? You are an awesome game maker! Can you PLEASE make a game where you are running away from a mummy?

No...I'm not really on the staff at Scratch...I just like it so much that I have been demonstrating it for some classes to show kids what it can do. Also I'm a Forum Moderator. I'm glad you like my games! The mummy idea sounds interesting...maybe something like you have to run from one spot to another while one or more mummys chase you? That would be cool if you could hide behind things to escape them...maybe there could be safety zones or something...interesting concept!

The mummy game - I'm not making any promises...I'm in the middle of a bunch of projects for the 1.3 release at the moment...but I like the idea and will give it some thought. Thanks for the encouragement!

i also have another question. i'm working on a destop buddy and i want it so when you click it, it does a random animation. can i use the scrits that you used in the scratch logo, or is there another way to make it random?

You can use my scripts...but they are not random. They change by one every time it is clicked. However, it would be very easy to make them random. Just have the Poke Count variable set using the Pick Random block (under the Numbers area).

uh, what's a sytax error?

Paddle2See Paddle2See 1 month ago

It's when the computer can't figure out how to run the command you typed in - because you messed up the "sytax". You miss-spelled a word, or left out a comma, something like that. Scratch doesn't have this type of error, because you click and drag blocks to make the program, you aren't typing in commands.

Nice! They make a pretty good demonstration of Scratch's graphic effects. I run the project once so the kids get the information, then I run it again and show the graphic effects. They seemed to like it!

Hehe, my favorite error to get is a walkback. Try making the variable (%) it messes up! Just press teh x to get out. Another error I like is setting a variable to sqrt(-1) which is an imaginary number!

that's a good idea to presente "SCRATCH" in greek language. But i must find a way to ... write in greek. The scratch doesn't ... speak greek! I hope for a translation, soon!!!!!

That is a problem! You could create the Greek text as costumes on a Speech sprite. It would be more work though.

You can certainly make a more interesting presentation in Scratch...it does take a bit more work though.

Nice! You may want to mention within the project that the project itself is made in Scratch and shared on the website...

That's a good idea...right now I give that information as my commentary as I show the project. It's really just a framework for me to talk to.

Thanks...I made it more as a crutch for me, so I wouldn't miss any main points. I use it as a framework and fill in more information as I talk to it (that's why you can manually control the timing). Plus, it acts as a demonstration of Scratch.
