Folders in "My Stuff"

Right now, “My Stuff,” looks like my room. When it's dirty. Which is pretty dirty… (I know, best intro ever.) So my suggestion is: Can we have folders in our “My Stuff?” For example, I would put a folder named “Games” and put all my games in there. Same with an “Unfinished” or “Experiment” folder.

It would help me with organization with my projects and it would help me find my projects faster. I guess it's not important, but still, would be really useful to me. Also, it would help if you left a comment of if you support it and a review of the idea. Thanks for reading!

You do have a good point. Back in Scratch 1.4, the offline editor let you put projects in folders, and the website had more room to view projects in. It'd also be easy to implement because there are already “Shared Projects” and “Unshared Projects” folders. The problem is that most people don't have so many projects that they're going to run into problems with organization. Plus, studios could be used to organize shared projects.

Seeing what I am, I'd say I don't support your suggestion, but it was nice. :)

My thoughts,

Okay, thanks for the info, I see your point. But people don't have to make folders if they don't have much projects. I think that answers the first problem. For the second problem, that's true, it could be meant for a folder, but isn't studios instantly shared? (At least that's what I think) I don't want it to be shared if it is like an “Experiments” or “WIP” type of projects. You might say, “Well, most people wouldn't look at your studios.” I didn't mean that in a mean way, just in like IF you said that. But yeah, people tend to look at my studios. And comment stuff. People also tend to spam comments so I delete the studio. Too lazy to delete all those comments.

Thanks for the review!

~Sincerely,

I like the idea of being able to create folders in Mystuff. For now, I don't mind how it is.

Same? Cool. Wait, I didn't mean it like that. I love your signature, by the way, I get it.

Folders in "My Stuff"

I've recently made a suggestion about folders (in studios or something; I can't remember clearly).
Now I'm making a suggestion about folders again, only this time it's about the projects people have in “Their Stuff”.
I would like to organize/sort my projects in “My Stuff” because I want my projects to be separated by category. I don't really like how all my projects are just together, despite their different “game genres”. I know there are unshared and shared projects, but that doesn't really satisfy me.

Like what? Or can we make our own folders?
But besides, support either way.

This would be cool, especially if you make a newspaper or something like that, like myself, so you could make a folder for all of the projects.

Nice! But due to how the shared and unshared project “folders” work, I think it should be labels instead, like in Gmail. Something can have multiple labels, and shared and unshared are system labels that are applies automatically. I might make my own suggestion for that at some point.

I was looking at my previous projects today, and I was thinking; what if we could organize them? Not exactly like studios, but just have files on the profile like ‘animation’ and ‘map parts’. I think that would make the profile look much more professional. Thinking about it, this sounds like playlists on YouTube. Just an idea. Please and thank you.
