How to make a list of costumes (important)

Nerdyactivist

Okay, I am trying to create a list of costumes for one sprite, but when I make the second costume, it thinks I'm editing the first one and it's getting really annoying. How do I make more than one costume for one sprite?

You'll need to use the costume tab. It is one the tabs with, scripts/costumes/sounds.

Go to costumes, then click the appropriate option. Sprite library/new sprite/upload sprite

No, I want *different* costumes for the *same* sprite.

I think mstone326 meant costume library/paint costume/upload costume/costume from photo.

(Swallowed by an evil kumquat who was just taking a walk in the neighborhood of evil kumquats when they saw a garage sale where they bought a plate which they used to eat but they discovered that it leaked and they went to get their money back but the sale was over so they went in the house but the door was locked so they got their key but it didn't fit so they went home to use the key on the right door which was their own door and then they decided to swallow a signature for no reason.)

Different costumes for a sprite.Check out the costumes for Crash. Is that something you are looking for?

Or do you want the “same sprite” to have clones of itself that show different costumes?

Your question is not specific enough. Is this what you are saying?

“I am drawing costumes for a sprite. When I finish drawing the first costume, I don't know how to draw the second costume.”

or is this what you are saying?

“I am importing costumes for a sprite. I can import the first costume, but when I import the second costume it ends up on top of the first costume.”

Or are you saying something different from either of those?

That means you are uploading in the wrong place.

The “import” button inside the costume editor will upload an image into an existing costume.

To upload a new costume, use the file folder icon at the top of the center panel.

To upload an image and have it create a new sprite to hold it, use the file folder at the top of the left panel.

When you finish drawing the first costume, click on the paintbrush icon at the top of the center panel. That will open a new blank costume that you can draw in.

If you want to modify the first costume, right click on it and select “duplicate”. That will create a second costume that is identical to the first one.
