Whoah! I just noticed this and didn't know there were updates! I'm glad you are starting to pay more attention to remixes! I think they are an integral part of our community and collaboration in general!

Hey everyone,

We’re currently working on ways to make giving credit simpler and more celebrated on Scratch. As a first step, we're making it easier to give thanks and receive credit on Scratch.

We have enhanced the automatic credit for remixes by making the usernames of the authors more visible.

In the past, you were required to give credit by typing out the usernames of the original creators in the Notes & Credits. From now on, thanks and credit to the creators of the original and remixed project will appear automatically.

Here’s the updated credit box:

This automatic credit will serve as proper credit for remixes. So, no need to rewrite the authors' usernames in the Notes & Credits box. Much simpler, eh?

However, if you use images, music, or sprites from projects or people that are not listed in the automatic credit box, we ask you type in the names and provide credit to those Scratchers or other artists or musicians.

Although you are no longer required to thank the original creators if their names automatically appear, we still encourage adding your own note of thanks (the more credit, the better!)

We made this change to make sure that original creators and projects were more visible and to make clearer which projects are remixes. We also had found a lot of confusion over the previous system.

We are planning further improvements to make sure that project creators are highlighted every time their projects are remixed.

Scratch On!

This will definitely subside no crediting! Great change, Scratch Team!

Awesome!

Heh heh, nice.

Though, I don't think that this will get rid of… debates over giving credit. It's just a feeling I have, y'know?

yes, indeed, especially when remixes are exact copies of the original project.

Hello, If you see this, you have spent way too long on the internet. Go outside for a breath of fresh air.

Oh, neat! This will definitely help, I see so many uncredited remixes.

This is pretty sweet, not that I really make many remixes.

Thank you so much! Now I'm not stuck hounding nearly everyone who remixes my projects. I was thrilled when I noticed the update.

Great job Scratch Team, been wanting this feature for a while.

Awesome! No more telling people to give me creds when they remix my projects!
