Scratch

Hi! I noticed that you are currently looking for people to claim credit for certain blocks in your mod.

It just so happens that the (time), (key pressed), "system beep" blocks are all from Bingo. I would also like to point out that the image from URL reporter is indeed not my own creation (as you correctly stated) but I got it from MathWizz, who in turn probably got it from someone else.

While I'm at it, I should also mention that you don't seem to have given any credit for the "letters 1 to 5 of word" and "join [] [] []" blocks, yet you put it on the features page. I believe the first comes from Bingo and the second comes from Insanity.

Good luck with your mod!

OK, there was a little misunderstanding there. I created all of the image blocks myself except for the URL one, which I took from MathWizz who in turn probably took it from someone else.
And the system beep is from Bingo, not Insanity, although the block is so easy to make that every single mod probably has it.

I am also going to point out that the following blocks came from uncredited from other mods (most likely Panther):
- write [text] to file []
- delete file []
- read file []
- read line (1) of file []
- # of lines of []

Please take care to give appropriate credit to the creators of features when you copy them, as not giving credit is claiming someone else's code as your own.

Fixed all of the rest.

Yeah, I haven't been able to catch and credit everything very quickly, so thanks for the help.

No problem, we're happy to help!
Also, I might seem picky, but I don't want to get credit for things I didn't make: the file blocks probably come from Bingo but they were originally inspired from Panther as jvvg correctly mentioned.

anyone have an idea for a block? i can't think of one   

Maybe try tackling the Movie features I came up with here?

Very hard, but, i will try it! So i am guessing it will have a movie section that you can import movies into? So next to sound a movies section?

Yes.

Love the idea!

Okay, for the movies, for recording should it use the camera and microphone? Because that is how i am thinking of it.

Probably. But the only issue is a microphone would kind of get in the way of the visual recording.

Otherwise, it would have to be a silent film maker. That's actually better because you still can record a separate sound that can go with the film.

Oh, and the Movies blocks would need a "play movie [movie v] until done" block

Duh! why don't we make the movie player the movie player the scratch team were making. It would be MUCH easier. But then we would have to use the microphone with the video. Also how would sound recording get in the way of the film?

Duh myself!    I agree.

To the end part: Well, to have a microphone sitting in the character's hand? A bit, well, something. I suppose the mic could be put to the side, though.

oh    i meant like how scratch records already

Oh. It wouldn't be. 

What do you mean? i meant for sound like how sound is recorded. Except without those record buttons. Replaced with new Movie buttons! Well, they still could be sound buttons. Anyways, i will be making a few pictures the way  i think the movie could work.

One idea (where movies are with looks):
here
(it includes sound, just doesn't show)
EDIT: this is an idea, i didn't program this yet

That's a good idea, but what if it had like 10000 frames? That would be crammed. 

Oh, it would have a bar, like the vertical one, but horizontal
