Good suggestion. Profile page or RokCoder home page though? I'll be gradually developing the site over time…Sure, your choice! Also, why not add a Favicon?
OK sorry if people have already asked but now the website just won't even work at all.
Make sure you press the “enter” key after entering your username

What are you planning on adding? Are you going to add a home page to the website?Suggestion:Good suggestion. Profile page or RokCoder home page though? I'll be gradually developing the site over time…
Make your “RokCoder PFP” at the top right corner a clickable button which opens this in a new tab.
The GIF in the top corner should be linked to the home page of the website. (if you put one)
I appreciate you both helping out in here. I'm not sure how to make it clearer. It's in the first post of this thread, in plenty of replies and in the instructions in the actual project. It's amazing how many Scratchers just can't be bothered to read a few instructionsMaybe add something like “Please read the instructions before posting positing.” to the end of the sentence linked to this topic on the website.

How long it takes to load depends on the number of projects you have.Sometimes it loads sometimes it doesn't.OK sorry if people have already asked but now the website just won't even work at all.How so? Seems fine to me.

Me too, it starts loading and then gets stuck. I've waited a few minutes and it's still not working:Hey, at least it sometimes worksSometimes it loads sometimes it doesn't.OK sorry if people have already asked but now the website just won't even work at all.How so? Seems fine to me.

The strange thing is was never a problem for me before.

For the animated thumbnails you might add, maybe you could put a link to World_Languages's project or put the instructions on the website? It would make less “How do I make an animated thumbnail?” posts. (Assuming people will bother to look at either of those places before posting here.)

(Assuming people will bother to look at either of those places before posting here.)I'd have to do that as, though I can create the GIFs, automating their usage isn't possible. I don't want to do it though based on the number of users who don't read instructions

Hmm… yeah the annoying comments about how to do obvious things will probably be doubled at least. But I guess you also want to keep this thread open because there is some helpful feedback.For the animated thumbnails you might add, maybe you could put a link to World_Language's project or put the instructions on the website?

One option is to make a new webpage that only does the gifs. (Probably a bad idea.)
I know how to set it, but how did you create the GIF for your other profile project? Is there a way I could easily create the GIF myself? (Without the website.)

When I did mine I used ezgif.com
The one benefit of doing the profiles the Python way was you had a folder that contained all your thumbnails!

I used ezgif for mine, too. You still have access to the thumbnails in the online version. Just unzip the sb3 and view the folder in (large) thumbnail mode and you'll be able to see what's what.ok, thanks!How did you create the GIF for your other profile project?

Please don't make empty posts.
I wonder if I'm spamming by telling people not to spam?
I like your simple home page you put at www.rokcoder.com. Maybe you could add a link to your profile creator?

When I have a little time I'll add a Scratch page with links to utilities, projects and documents. It's very much on a backburner at the moment (though I did enjoy putting the home page and scraper tool together - it was my first dabbling with JavaScript, PHP and CSS).

They were working for me at first but now they've stopped working even though I'm putting them all in the notes and credits.To the people asking about issues with preview giving errors, they should be fixed now.EDIT: Works!
But the project is about 3.5 MB, takes time to download
Found an issue, says there is no description even though there is; the problem might be that there is the “instructions” but no “notes and credits”

There are plenty showing with descriptions. Which projects have got description hashtags but aren't showing them?
