I want an image to size up to where the only thing you can see is the door of the house. The problem is however, the house that's being sized caps at 204 ( the normal being 100 ) I want it go get bigger than that, is there some way to do it other than cropping out the outside? ( Tried it once before, didn't go well )

There is a trick for this. You can add a new costume for your house sprite. make it a tiny dot. Then set the size of the tiny dot to 500. When you switch costume back to the house it will be bigger than you can normally make it

i'd like it to be hidden though, I don't want anyone seeing nothing for a split second…

Scratch will switch costumes quickly enough that you won't see the intermediate stage.

switch costume to [tiny dot v] // I believe the costume can also just be blank
set size to (500)
switch costume to [house v]

This script will run in between screen refreshes. Be aware that changing the size to a number that is still bigger than the max size of the sprite again while the ‘house’ costume is selected will reset the size to 204.
You can also use a custom block with the “Run without screen refresh” option checked,

Still though, i want the house to keep increasing in size.

I want the house to do that.

No reason why you can't do so using the trick described. You'll need two copies - either two sprites or sprite+clone - but as long as you switch to the dot costume for the size increase it should work.

just do

when green flag clicked
forever
switch costume to [blank v]
set size to (size of your choice) %
switch costume to [costume of your choice v]
end

before doing it I would recommend using a test sprite before using this line of code, just in case
