Re: been here before but dont know where to start

Hi! The best way to start off is to look around at people's projects, then download and remix them. You can get ideas for new projects just by looking at the code.

Also, you have to have over 50 posts to have a sig on here. Sorry.


I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

Re: been here before but dont know where to start

i dont really like remixing projects. to me it seems too much like copying. i will be sure to post often so my sig will be displayed. thanks
