I'm trying to remix a dress-up project to add a “Done” and a “Save” button: The “Done” button getting rid of extra clothes that are not touching the person (I know how to do that part) and the “Save” button saving an image to the computer or backpack… But I need help with the “Save” button. If you could help, I would be very grateful!
I understand how to use the purple “create a block” block and how to define it. I'm thinking about the following:
"Define: Save“
”take screenshot“ or something like that
”if sprite clicked then save to backpack“ -or- ”if sprite clicked then save to local file"

Would that be possible? I know it's possible to turn on the camera of a device… so would it be possible to take a screenshot of one's screen? Also, would it be possible to save that image automatically with the clicking of a sprite?

Thanks

After getting an answer to my questions, I think that these would be good features to add to scratch!

They would be good features, but hard to implement.

True, true.

Would cause massive lag & spam backpack, scratch storage space, and computer of user.

True, but what I'm saying is that the user would press a button (choose whether or not to save it) and there would be a script like this:

when this sprite clicked
save to backpack

Of course, the creator of the project could make it save without the consent of the user, if that's what you're saying. Oh, I see, I misread your reply. You're saying that, of course, people could spam other's backpacks and computers with use of

forever
    
end

I understand now. That is a good point…. if only all of the Scratch community was nice enough not to spam at all….
