4/18/13: Updates to the site and editor

Website:

- When logged out, clicking the nav bar “create” link now opens editor with the tips window set to the step by step intro.
- When clicking a link to a comment from the notifications page, the comments now wait to render until that comment has loaded, even if it's multiple “load more” pages down.
- New about page layout & content.
- Fixed replies on studios
- Fixed comment length limits that broke
- When someone views the embedded player with flash disabled, the project thumbnail will show in addition to the “get flash player” link.
- Fixes for 1.4 project uploads: don't require notes. (See how to help test uploads from 1.4 to beta thread coming soon.)
- Studio code refactor. Note: We had to push this with known bugs (project deletion doesn't work, and curator invite notifications aren't being sent. We'll deploy fixes for these in the next few days.)

Project Editor:
This push is mostly about translation!
- every UI string is exported to the set of strings we put on Pootle for translators to translate
- every UI string goes through the translation mechanism (Phew)
Now we can invite translators to finish the translations!

We're going to be updating the site more often over the next several weeks, as we get closer to release..(see announcement about that coming soon.) This may mean more bugs in the short term, but we have to move quickly to get features out for testing. Please be patient, beta testers!

Ah hah! And this deploy seems to have killed the homepage. We're working on a fix right now.

Lightnin I have a question. I want to make a game where you use your body to activate stuff or something. How does that work?

Try posting in questions about Scratch! Probably you'll want to use the new camera blocks - they're fun!

You can also open the editor and click the question mark and then click a camera block - that'll give you a brief explanation of how it works.

You mean, import several images at once? I don't know, they haven't added this yet, but I hope they do so I can continue blender animations!

Lightnin When will there be an ability to change variable colors and make them go to front and go back layers? Because that would be very helpful.

Yay I found out how to add signatures! Well I think Scratch 2.0 is awesome and I love the vector, clones, and the backpack! Join me on the journey to learning π! I know the first 69. How many do you know?

+1!

We also what costume/picture combining like in 1.4!

But take your time, the Beta has a lot of features to add… I'd just like to see the full list, with these entered.

Thanks for the ride, Scratch Team and community! Unfortunately, the time has come for me to move on from Scratch, so I'll no longer be using the forums. Thanks again, and farewell!
Invisible text! This will show you if a profile I claim to be mine IS mine. Just remember to visit the profile and see if I confirmed in the comments.
For old time's sake, see the revolutionary Laser Battle 2.0! Also see Unstoppable Game!

And no, the evil kumquats didn't alter my signature…
