Hey! I'm working on a Windows 7 simulator, as it is many people's favorite Windows version. I got a basic window manager working, but then I came across a problem: How would I make the aero?
I mean, I could do it, but it would be extremely slow and I need it to work real-time.

Hello! Could you please explain what “aero” is? Also, a project link would be helpful. Thanks!

I sent an image but Scratch didn't show it.
Windows 7 Aero is where you can see through something but it is blurry. Sort of like blurry glass.

Hello! Creating a blur effect will be quite difficult in Scratch- especially if it's only part of a sprite. The next best thing is the ghost effect, but I don't think I can help you with a blurry glass effect. Sorry!

oh, welp

Other Scratchers might be able to help you, though, so you should still keep your eyes peeled for any responses!

someone recently (llama??) did something cool with stacking almost transparent stamps to get a really nice blur effect. honestly have no idea where tho

The project you're remembering is

Blurry Stamped Sprite Demonstration by awesome-llama-test

Llama says the effect works with clones as well as stamps. Awesome!
