Scratch

These are some of my ideas:

Yes, they're kinda helpful... Especially this pen size/shade/color reporters and boolean reporter, which is helpful (but rather useless)

How did you make those???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Oh... I copied a block already in scratch and changed the color and text to what i wanted. It is not easy! 

<play sound[ mario theme ]and waits>

my song is not like a scratch song :-(

How did you get them in the forums?


P.S.
Nice job on the block editing!!

A better script clean.

so instead of:                   
<when green flag clicked>
<play sound[ ]>               
<when[  ]key pressed>
<next costume>


Its:
<when green flag clicked><when[  ]key pressed>
<next costume>               <play sound[ ]>

I think it would be cool if you could switch to a "scratch text mode" which would be text based scripting and not "block based". In that way members could learn about programming that they could use in their jobs when they get older.
Please excuse my english and
Pleae tell me if you didn't understand

The ability to create libraries. I made a topic on it already though. Also, allowing scratch to display HTML and PHP pages. You could create a web browser in Scratch or an HTML editor that let's you preveiw the HTML you write.

Great idea. I also think we should have something like Mesh, that lets Sprites enter shared rooms. I agree with some previous ideas:
-Add and delete sprites
-Mesh

I also think we should use object classes to make templates. So there would be special "template" sprites. Every script on them would start out with <when template1 created>.  along with the <stop script>, templates would also have a <delete me> block. sprites would have a block <create sprite of [class]>. and the <touching[ ]>
would accept classes.
and scratch needs a mesh or online shared rooms

i would like the <key[   ]pressed?> and <when[   ]key pressed> to be able to incorpperate the entire ketbored, E.g the F-keys, and the caps, enter, esc, insert, home, EVERYTHING!!

(p.s. the colours really need to be fixed!)

well the stop strip that part need a little improveing
eg
maybe i wanted some thing to stop but then after i shourt preriod of time i want to start agin

open .scup (upgrades)
write |______| to |(where)|containing ( )
edit button (opens source code)

movies tab
tilt sensor (included)
tilt direction
tilt x
tilt y
calibrate

I don't know, I think that would be too object oriented. Such as: How would a big piece of art use a tilt sensor? And Scratch is designed to be usable by 8-12 year olds, and eight year old, with no programming experience would know nothing about tilt sensors, or a lot of other stuff you listed.
Although the Edit button that opens the source code would be helpful. But that would have to have two ways to open scratch from that source code. One way that can be edited, but can not be shared with. And another way that you can share projects with, but not edit. It would be too hard for the Scratch team to make.

well I made that list for me to make the stuff when im older. I wanna go to MIT
