I think the perfect compromise here is to maybe slightly increase the limit (not to the level of 1GB but maybe 100MB?) and allow hosting assets on a PUBLIC location approved by the ST. Hosted assets (images, sounds) don't count towards the limit. If a project has hosted assets and it is reported for inappropriate content, a bot automatically unlinks the assets, flagging the URLs to be hidden and not loaded.
This actually sounds pretty good of an idea.
My main issue might be what would happen if I tried to edit a sprite -just slightly- for my project.
You'd have to simply download the sprite's costume and change it, then re-upload the change to the same place. Hosted assets are basically public files for use in Scratch projects that the owner of the project is storing on their own storage media, rather than the Scratch servers.

Again, this is probably the best way.

My signature is kumquat proof.

i mean, yeah, but would you have to edit the asset outside of the project?

I used to make stuff on here, now i just come on when i'm bored, don't expect anything from me now.

Sorry - we have to reject this. Server space and network bandwidth still costs us money. We could not afford to allow unlimited project size and still have Scratch be free to use.

This is my forum signature! On a forum post, it is okay for Scratchers to advertise in their forum signature. The signature is the stuff that shows up below the horizontal line on the post. It will show up on every post I make.
