When opening up a scratch project on a different device to what I normally use scratch on, most of the sprites had appeared as these grey boxes labelled with question marks. In the costume editor, the grey boxes are showed, however, the question mark is in a different font, and is completely misaligned. I have tried reloading the page and deleting the tab several times, however that had no effect.

I think it's a bug…Even I got it! It's bc the sprites take time to load! I almost thought that someone hacked my project

Half of my costumes are question marks pls fix scratch

um, that can't be fixed, sometimes, scratch doesn't load those costumes, or their files are corrupted, if that happens again, do NOT see inside, or the placeholder (the ? in a box) will be the actual costume, and it will be PERMANENT!

You can reproduce this bug with a certain probability using these steps:

Open a text editor, like Notepad.
Type “Hello!” in the text editor.
Save it as an SVG. If you can't save it as an SVG, save as normal, remove “.txt”, and add SVG instead. If you can't do this, enable settings that always show file extensions.
Open Scratch, and then create a new project.
Import the SVG file and the question mark with a gray box appears!

By the way, you can take the question mark and use that font in your Scratch projects everywhere!

Just kidding.

I was trying to make I Like Trains but a train picture just shows question mark.

when green flag clicked
ask [Question mark succ right?] and wait
if <(answer) = [yes]> then
ask [Ye it succ] and wait
else
ask [wha you think about?] and wait
end
stop [all]

I Found out by using the (removed by moderator - please don't name browser extensions) by Progress Bar If the assists is over the limit of 1420 or 1500 or 1750 (one of them is right) any assists (like Sounds Costumes and Code blocks) it Means the Data of this project means (Too many assists MB) or Costume size is over the limit. I want this fixed to!

It could also mean this sprite wasn't able to load Correctly so it decided to Crashes the Costume and can no longer undo
It is most beast to Export the Sprite before reloading it or having it crashed

Story-

Brian was making a Project and he had Saved it and Close the tab.
After then another day all the Sprites are Boxes of Gray. it turns out he was upset.
then after that he talked to Marry. Brian said I had 325 costumes in one sprite! and they appear to Question marks.
Marry said some was some of the costumes were over 500 KB?

This also happens to me when I save a .png and rename it to .svg. It's very annoying, but I've never witnessed this.

You cant just rename a png to svg. it wont work.
