Help!

[blocks]Ok, Ive been making a game for the digital open, and I'm testing some of the blocks, and I have somthing that looks like this:
<when green flag clicked>
<if>
<touching color[
<switch to costume[  (background, not costume.)
the problem I'm having with this is that the <touching color[  block turns red and gets a red border. Whats with that?

and for costumes:

<when green flag clicked>
<if>
<touching color[
<hide>

the problem I'm having with this, is that my sprite won't come back!
HELP!!!!!!!!

Re: Help!

Switch Background only works on the Stage, Switch Costume only works on sprites.  It is possible to drag those blocks (and copy them) to the wrong type - but they won't work.  Instead, you get the red "error" border.

To get your missing sprite back, Click on the Show block or right click on the sprite (in your list of sprites) and select Show from the menu.
