A project picture always shows how the game looked last time it was edited doesn't it?
Well I made a drawing game and worked really hard to make a good picture with it so when people search for the game that is the picture they see. My friend had an idea and so we went in the game to add it. I wasn't thinking and tested the idea out. The project automatically saved so my picture was lost. Is it possible to get it back?

Sadly, no. You would have to make the picture again, which sucks.

NOT SO FAST tntey! Actually there may be a way to answer your question. Are you trying to make a thumbnail for your project? Then this is pretty easy.

If you want to use your friend's drawing as the thumbnail, first go to your project and hit the “Look Inside” button. You'll be brought to the online editor. From there, import your friend's drawing and make it one of the backgrounds for the stage. Then under scripts for the stage, use

when green flag clicked
switch backdrop to [original background]

From here you'll need to switch your background manually to your friend's drawing by clicking on his picture under “costumes.” The purpose of the script above is so that the picture goes away when you click the green flag. Now to save your work, just add any block and delete it then click save. Your project will save with the picture as the thumbnail. But on to the second part of your question.

Are you trying to recover your work? Is your project saved on your computer in offline mode or is the picture downloaded onto your computer? If you deleted the picture or project in all of the above locations, there is no way to recover it. But if you have it on your computer or it is still somewhere on the online project you can recover it.

If anything above confuses you, feel free to ask. Hope I've helped

sorry. I didn't explain very clearly. The picture was not a back drop. When you go inside your game and play it then go off again the little square has a small picture of how it was just before you came off so people can see your game. I wanted people to see a cool pattern so I went inside my game made the pattern and then ca,e off again.
My friend had an idea about the code so I went back inside the game to try it out and then tested it and now my nice pattern has gone.

Thanks for your help anyway.
