Hyperlink to another project in game
Do you have an advertisement or sequel to your game? I give you… the hyperlink suggestion!
Click the new BLUE T, and in the prompt, put in the project link, then in the new prompt, put in what text you want to show up!
Goes something like this in project:
Click here to play ThisGame2!
-clicks-
Prompt: Do you want to open the project ThisGame2 in a new tab?
Opens or does not open ThisGame2 in new tab respective to the answer
Update: 5/6/15
When I originally suggested this, I didn't really think about how it would work n stuff, or even what would happen if you tried to send someone to a link outside of Scratch, but it looks like somehow a popular suggestion (a block that links to a SCRATCH page) has made it's way to this thread.

It should have a pop-up message (like the username block message) asking you to confirm, and it should also freeze the script until the user responds to the message to prevent spam opening tabs:open page scratch.mit.edu/[] :: control
There message would show the page being linked to, and the icon for projects, profiles and studios.

Yeah, a block like
follow link [http://scratch.mit.edu/users/Scratch12300/]
so it can go to that webpage. (that example will actually take you to my profile page.) And if the webpage is nonexistant, it ignores it.

However, it can be used for mousetrapping:
When gf clicked
Forever
follow link [the same project]
so that you will repeatedly go to the project that is spamming, until your computer crashes.

So It gives you a warning first. That would prevent that. Prompt: Do you want to open the project ThisGame2 in a new tab?

I'm pretty sure this would be very hard to implement. And couldn't you just use the description…?

Support for this-
(For those of you wondering, I put the “scratch.mit.edu” on the outside of the textbox on purpose for the reason stated above.)
open page scratch.mit.edu/[] :: controlThis block will only open Scratch pages, this way the user isn't tricked into opening a page with a virus on it.

Now get out of the kumquat's stomach and go do something productive with your life. Like playing this game over and over again. Very productive.

woah guys, you necroposted my old topic! But it's still valid I guess.
I still support this.

When the block happens, it pauses all scripts and opens a prompt that asks you if you want to go or not, thus not forcing the site upon you. But then the prompt will be continually opened… so maybe the block can't be placed in a forever block unless it is in an if, or it cannot be activated within 5 seconds of itself?

Ah, a fun one! One thing, though:
When typing in
https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/4825/
-or-
discuss/topic/4825/
so that you could simply pop in the link and it would negate the https://scratch.mit.edu/ part automatically, resulting in the same thing as just adding the tail. This would allow you to quickly pop in a link, but the people who didn't know of that nuance AND who expected it to work by tacking it on wouldn't be confused.
Alternatively:
would have exactly the same function, but clear up that confusion minefield, plus look like a nicer block, plus be the second block to ever have a capital letter :3

Like your mockup, but I have one thing to say, your spam prevention may work but there still is the fact I can mousetrap anybody with it! So i'll stick with a 85% support, actually 88%… just cuz your mockup
