How do you make a spin while its moving? Also, how can I copy and paste my intro into one of my more recent projects if it's in a different project?

1.) How do you make a spin while its moving?

You can change it's x and y coordinates manually instead of using

which only moves in the direction the sprite is currently facing. Using

can move the sprite while rotating the sprite at the same time. Or if that's too complicated you could have it forever go to a second invisible sprite while rotating. i.e.

2.) how can I copy and paste my intro into one of my more recent projects if it's in a different project?

You can add the intro code to your “Backpack” and then when you begin a new project select the block(s) from the Backpack to add them into the new project.

I kind of do not get it

If you have a project you need help with share it and provide a link (or tell us how to identify it).

The backpack is explained here http://wiki.scratch.mit.edu/wiki/Backpack

I get the backpack, I just don't get how to make a sprite while moving

You haven't given much information on how you want the movement to appear or what kind of spinning you mean. Sharing a project always makes it easier to help.

Basically you need to combine pointing in different directions with, presumably, rotating the sprite. That means you can't just use the

block as the sprite will then be moving in the direction it is pointing. Both the glide method of moving and using change x (or y) by a number will allow you to move the sprite as you wish while still changing the direction it is pointing which gives one form of spin.

Basically what deck26 said was that you can't use the

block because you would be rotating. so you would need to use

and so it would still be rotating but going where you want the sprite to go.

An alternative way is to rotate your sprite costume by costume in the costume editor, then set rotation style to “don't rotate” (rotation style only affects how the costume displays; since you're already spinning the costume, make sure the facing direction doesn't mess that up).

Thanks

There is a third option. You can have two sprites, and one sprite handles the directional movement while the second sprite handles the rotation. Then have rotation sprites x, y coordinates go to the movement sprites position. You can use a transparent sprite for the movement sprite

Here is a very basic project that demonstrates the technique:
separate move and rotate

Or you could just do something like this
