How do I include a screenshot?
Please don't quote the original post.

Anyway, use snipping tool to snip a portion of (or the whole) screen. Save it, then upload it to cubeupload. From there, use [img]link[/img] to send your image.

What is the snipping tool?????
It's a feature built into Windows.

Press Windows Key + Shift + S

This is a newer, cleaned up version of this topic. Please do not report glitches with Scratch in this topic. Your post will be removed. Instead, make a new topic. Also, keep to the topic of the forum. This includes suggestions, questions and problems with scripts. Problems with scripts should be moved to the help with scripts forum. Anything offtopic will be reported to be moved.

We've found glitches somewhere in Scratch, right?
Right?

The point is, you should have. Before reporting a bug, clear your cache to see if your issue is a caching issue. If it's fixed, stop here. Your bug was down to your cache. The first thing you want to do is make a new topic. Alternatively, you can hit the blue button in the corner of the Bugs and Glitches (BaG) forum that says new topic.

For a subject, summarise your glitch in a few words. In my example, I'm going to use “Character limit stays red if limit hit after comment posted”. Yes it's jank. Yes it's being fixed, but hey. Why not?

In the main topic, you want to include the following things:
A bug description
When it started
Where it is
A link (if it's in a specific project, link to it)
Reproduction steps
Expected result
Actual result
Operating system, browser and Flash version (should be already there. if not, click the globe icon in the tools bar above the topic itself)
Screenshot (even better if you record a GIF. I recommend using ScreenToGif)

Trying to be as descriptive as possible will help a lot.

Animated tutorial (middle click to enlarge):

So what if there's a topic to reply to?
Glad you asked. Preferably, there are these codes you should follow. They're the way to reply to a bug.
NAB - Not a bug - Used if the topic is not on the topic of the forum or if the “bug” is intended.
Dupe - Duplicate - There's another topic. Preferably link to it.
Known - Does what it says on the tin - This is different to Dupe. This means the Scratch team knows (with reference) about the bug.
CNR - Cannot reproduce - Include your system specifications.
CR - Can reproduce - Include your system specifications.
LOI - Lack of information - Asks the person to provide more information about the bug. Tell them what is missing and to include it.
Please include as much information as possible. The more information you provide, the more helpful it is to everyone.

Since this topic is far from perfect, reply to this if you have a suggestion, need help or have a question.

Hello Scratch Team. You have been pushing a liberal political agenda on this site for far too long. This site should stay out of politics. People should be able to still post their political opinions, but there shouldn’t be any “official” political stance or Scratch. The ST is not going to change this on their own, and shoot down any attempts asking them to change. Please put this in your signature if you agree that

Scratch should be politically neutral.

The ST’s biggest defense is that they’re being welcoming, but they can be perfectly welcoming of all people and stay out of politics. Scratch is about coding, and that should be the Scratch Team’s biggest concern to maintain.

This is my signature. I am allowed to adertize here.

What do you do if you don't know how to reproduce the glitch? Should I just go through what I did up until that point?

Hello! I'm the creator of Platformer Shooter Thing, the Scratch Attack Game Jam, and a lot of other stuff. I pride myself in trying to make 100% of my code, so some of my projects are a bit… buggy to say the least.

I'm a Meower user, “Problem scratch team?”
