Hey everyone! We have a big batch of updates for you all :]

Email Confirmation
We're now requesting user's confirm their email address when creating a new Scratch account. Confirming your email address will enable your account to leave comments, share projects, and create studios. We will send you an email after registration with a link to confirm your account. All you need to do is click that link. Pretty simple, eh?

You're not required to confirm your email address. However, unconfirmed accounts will only be able to make and save unshared projects.

All accounts made before this update do not need to confirm their email address to leave comments, share projects, and create studios, etc.

Why do this? A couple reasons! 1) We're planning to release Scratch email updates soon! So, we want to make sure we're sending updates to working email addresses. 2) We've seen a lot trouble around password reseting and incorrect and / or fake email addresses. It's important the email is working to make this process work smoothly.

Customizable Featured Project Panel
We now have the ability to customize our “Featured Project” panel on our profile page. You can select from 6 presets:

- Featured Project
- Featured Tutorial
- Work In Progress
- Remix This!
- My Favorite Things
- Why I Scratch

To do this: Go to Featured Project panel on your profile. Hover over your featured project, and then click “Change Featured Project.” Then simply pick one of the presets from the drop-down menu on that page.

Design a Valentine
Look for the new heart sprites and “Design a Valentine” tutorial in the Tips Window.

Password Protecting Empty Trash
You'll now need to enter your password to “Empty Trash” aka permanently delete your projects.

Great! now I can get back my password!

I have a question: what if you don want emails? It might get annoying for some parents because I made my account before I had an email so I used my dads.

SuperSonicmario

Ah, the blockspam…
Password-protected empty trash actually wastes more time than without password protection. But it makes us safer.
Still, those are great updates!

About the email update. Yes, it will help with the password resetting and stuff, but what if you dont have an email because you are not old enough?

And your parents do not allow you to use their email as they do not want notifications from Scratch?

Or any other website you have signed up for and could be going on, instead of doing online homework?

I made this account before so I dont need to do this (

thank goodness) but what about other new scratchers who are stuck in the same problem as me?

This is just my opinion but i think this thing should be optional.

But the rest of the updates are great! The only other thing this site needs is an option to change your username. I want to change mine to @-Xissa- . Then that would be awesome.
