The tutorial runs perfectly online but my downloaded version gets to the point where Cat describes getting a link to one's project by right-clicking, and then the Forums page slides into view and covers the Cat. The rest of the process of getting and applying the link is obscured by the Forums section. I downloaded the project twice and the same thing happened. Nothing was modified. Any idea what could be happening here?

It looks like when they released 1.4 the Switch Costume block became case-sensitive so the names in the script have to match the names in Scratch exactly. I uploaded a new version that should work...you might have to restart your browser to see it (or clear your cache).

Who would have thought of right-clicking on a project's image?! Great! I always loaded the project and copied the URL off the browser address bar, so this is a valuable set of tips! And your presentation is top-notch!! Thanks!

Sounds like fun...When will the judging be done? How do you say which categories your entries are in?

Yay! I was wondering how to advertise projects!

1yamum2 1yamum2 10 months, 3 weeks ago

how do u get views from that

Paddle2See Paddle2See* 10 months, 3 weeks ago

You get more views because the people that use the Forums will see your advertisement and, if you've worded it attractively, follow your link and try your project.

magabella magabella 1 year, 1 month ago

(link to project)">(link to project) Thanks you really helped me! But I once linked one of my projects to a friend, then i wanted to link the project to someone else, but when I sent it, it said sorry you have posted the same message recently. What should i do?

Paddle2See Paddle2See* 1 year, 1 month ago

Yeah, that's a feature to keep spammers from pasting links to their projects all over the place. In a couple of days you will be able to paste that link again. Until then, you may have to get creative...substitute "+" for the dots (or something) and have your friend switch back before using it? That might work!

It's entirely up to the Scratch Team. They pick the projects to be featured. Today, they seem to be featuring older scratchers!

DrSuper DrSuper 1 year, 1 month ago

This is great. But I do not think that enough people look at the Show and Tell. What can be done about that?

Paddle2See Paddle2See* 1 year, 1 month ago

The biggest problem I see on Scratch right now is the difficulty locating projects. I have been advocating for over a year now for a way to build more complicated libraries than is provided by the Galleries (in their current form). If galleries could contain other galleries, then you could build very useful structures.

Paddle2See Paddle2See* 1 year, 1 month ago

But...I think that as more teachers become aware of what Scratch can do there will become more of a need for well-constructed educational games. I visualize teachers guiding students towards these games as a supplement to the usual classroom instruction. So I am focusing on trying to educate teachers (as well as children).

I think you may have hit on a fundamental truth about the number of "doers" versus "viewers". I know it is true of myself...I get much more enjoyement out of the creative process rather than actually using most of the projects I build myself. And even when I view the best projects I get more enjoyment out of learning how it was coded rather than actually playing the game (one recent exception: ffred's puzzle game).

hey paddle2see i am doing a state report on maine can you tell me what its like 2 actually be there?

Paddle2See Paddle2See* 1 year, 1 month ago

Well...I like it. It has beautiful scenery, both inland and along the coast. There's almost never a problem with traffic jams. On the downside, good paying jobs are hard to find and the winters tend to be long and cold. If you have specific questions, just let me know!

I noticed the user is called "PaddleSmart".

Paddle2See Paddle2See* 1 year, 1 month ago

Hey, I bet you have a Mac! Are my instructions in this tutorial accurate for Mac users? Do you have the Copy Shortcut menu option - or is it called something else? Thanks.

(view all replies)
Paddle2See Paddle2See* 1 year, 1 month ago

Right...I wanted to use a non-moderator account so it wouldn't have any confusing options. PaddleSmart is an account I created to show projects at a canoe and kayak safety symposium so it has paddle safety related projects. Plus some just for fun!

Hey Paddle2See? Want to be my friend...

itsEMILagain itsEMILagain 1 year, 1 month ago

by the way, have you seen my newest project; Light The Candle? its pretty interedting, i made something a bit like a touch-screen with slide capability. also i made a sprite go to a spcific place on another sprite, while the sprite is rotating from another point, if you know what i mean... not to spam, but i really think you'll find it interesting :) also i made those two things make sense together! XP

Thanks that was really helpful now I can tell all of my scratch friends who don't know about it

TyCamden TyCamden 1 year, 1 month ago

This was SUPER helpful. Just used the advice with No Problemo. If you get a chance, check out my newest animation (Gummy Bear related). I put a LOT of work into it... is there a way that I can request it be featured somehow??

Paddle2See Paddle2See* 1 year, 1 month ago

Well, you can't request for your own work to be featured. But there is a thread where other people can make recommendations (link to forums)">(link to forum) Please don't ask me to post to it for you...I don't want to get into that business, no matter how good the project is. Sorry.

Nice. Which beach is that?

Paddle2See Paddle2See* 1 year, 1 month ago

You're right...I should probably use one of my own beach shots. I have enough of them!

Are you kidding? That's one of the standard Scratch images! The image name is "beach-malibu" so I'm going to go out on a limb here and say...

very in-depth tutorial. I didn't know you could "copy shortcut". That's very helpful!

FoxDur FoxDur 1 year, 1 month ago

Yeah, I always thought you had to go to the project and copy from the address bar.

Paddle2See Paddle2See* 1 year, 1 month ago

Yeah, that's something I learned on the Forums, oddly enough. I think it works on Macs...if you have one please let me know if I wrote it up right!
