A signature is a small piece of text that is attached to your posts. In it, you can enter just about anything you like. Perhaps you would like to enter your favourite quote or your star sign. It's up to you! In your signature you can use BBCode if it is allowed in this particular forum. You can see the features that are allowed/enabled listed below whenever you edit your signature.

Support. This would be handy for griffpatch and others who make very advanced projects, but, it should pop up whenever you press the share button.

The kumquats have eaten this line, so I have to have a new way to repel them.

Do you think you've been banned unfairly? Then you'd be wrong. The ST aren't children, so quit acting like they are.

I find it interesting that this suggestion has gotten little traction. The current system is an objectively bad choice from a UX standpoint and I want it fixed, and I'm sure many others want it too. It can't possibly be that hard to add this.

Not sure why this is not a feature.

Support. This would help with people not getting confused about why a project is not saving.

Advice:
Saying “Support” or “No Support” doesn't contribute anything to the conversation.
A question that has already been answered doesn't need to be answered twice with the same answer - bring something new to the table.

This topic has been dead for 8 days. How is a simple bump well within the allowance for a bump “spam”?

Sounds distinctly annoying.

This should be optional. I would rather make the whole project in one go and then slowly cut down the project size than to be constantly pinged about how everything is above the limit.
Maybe this warning only shows in the online editor?

No. I use both the online and offline editors.

It should be optional either way.

The Scratch Team probably wouldn’t want to make it optional since it would add an odd suppress size warnings checkbox somewhere.

I don’t think it would be too annoying if it was implemented correctly. Ideally it would only warn after the first time it failed to save due to the size limit. After that, it would only create a warning if the user manually pressed the save button. Failed autosave wouldn’t create periodic warnings after the first time. There would be no warnings in the offline editor.

The only time I can think of this being annoying is if you are frequently going above and under the size limit. This could potentially be fixed by limiting the number of times the message appears automatically since loading the page.

I really do think it a good idea. I think it should have a percentage somewhere on the screen of the amount of space you had felt on the project. So yeah, I fully support it. I know one person who is working on a project and his project was amazing which I can see it be on the front page of the Scratch website which is a shame that the game is cancelled.

Also, I need to address this and I don't want to cause any fight, but it is still something that needs to be addressed. Spamming means repeating the same message which you did. Just stop it, it is just rude and pretty disrespectful. Just spamming won't help anyone at all and is really unprofessional.

I want to leave this in a positive note and say I fully support it
