Gray Question Marks in Projects
dang no sence of humorCan you stop spamming?
Anyway, I think this should be closed, as it’s pretty much resolved. Anyway “breakthrough” possibilities that are reported in BaG could be directed to Contact Us.

how to fix it the Matematix way:That would only work if you have a backup of the background or costume.

Gray Question Marks in Projects
Hey folks -Dear scratch team, my project is still affected by the grey question marks, please fix it soon as i do not want to lose my half a month's worth of hard work. Regards,
We have become aware that a number of projects that were edited since the morning of 4/8/2021 may have been afflicted with an issue that caused some of the costumes or backgrounds to appear as “gray question marks”.
We believe we have fixed the issue so that projects can now be edited without turning costumes or backgrounds into question marks. However, if you do have projects that were affected, we recommend that you use the Contact Us link (at the bottom of every page) to let us know so we can try to recover your project.
We apologize for the inconvenience.

sameHey folks -
We have become aware that a number of projects that were edited since the morning of 4/8/2021 may have been afflicted with an issue that caused some of the costumes or backgrounds to appear as “gray question marks”.
We believe we have fixed the issue so that projects can now be edited without turning costumes or backgrounds into question marks. However, if you do have projects that were affected, we recommend that you do not do any further work on them. We are looking into the possibility of restoring those projects to an earlier version that does not have the question marks - and we don't want you to lose any more work.
We apologize for the inconvenience.Hey folks -yes thanks so much for that! But I was just editing a project and that happened again
