Somehow it's a glitch but nobody cares. It will be replaced by your painted sprite.

Hey, I'm new. I made a game called GlitchSprite Testing. It will explain how to make a Sprite appear in a glitch. Check it out! It shows you how to make it in the notes.

Welcome to the Scratch forums! I see that you have made your first post.
However, you should try posting that in the Show and Tell forum.

It's a glitch?

Glitch #1: When you try to do this
[blocks](( 0  </> 0  ))[/blocks]
in a script it stops the script and the white/silver line around it turns into a dark red one. Luckily it only happened to me once 

Glitch #2: When you try to do this
[blocks](( 0  <mod> 0  ))[/blocks]
in a script well basicly it does the same thing as glitch no. 1.

Glitch #3: If you try to type 1.89, 1.91, 1.93 or 3.14159265 into any white ovally area it changes to the slightest fraction of a number more than the number you put.

Glitch #4: Edit the second costume of the Scratch Cat to a one pixel. Now, set the size to 64000%. Switch back to the first costume and it comes up with an error saying "Space is low".

Tell me if you find any others and I will add it to the list

Those four glitches where all found by me. Here are some others that other users found:

Glitch #5: Middle click on a sprite which has no scripts. Now, select "Save picture of scripts". Two things happen. First of all it comes up with an error saying "Subscript is out of bounds: 1" and second of all the script area for that sprite goes wrong until you open a new project.

Glitch 3: Computers store numbers in binary, and fractions in binary don't alway convert to decimal exactly. That's why you have the problem. Decimal is converted to binary, with a slight error, and then converted back with a slight error. That adds up to the error you see.

You could turn error catching off for the first two glitches, it works for me.

you can't divide 0 by 0! XD its impossible....is it? 

I know, but it's annoying when you have to do this
[blocks]<set{ Final score }to( (( <{ Hits }> </> <{ Misses }> ))[/blocks]
say in like a shooting game but what if hits and misses are both 0? Therefore it can be annoying. The same thing apparently happens with the mod block. I've explained this to two people already

Just do this instead:
[blocks]<set{ Final score }to( (( <{ Hits }> </> <{ (( Misses <+> 0.00001 )) }> ))[/blocks]

Impossible to divide by 0. The first two cannot and will not be changed.

Text dissapears when there is overloads of text, and squeak's memory runs low.

it means that the script won't work. it's not possible because that math can't be performed. it's just the way scratch is. if you do proper math and programming this won't happen. 

ok but how do u do middle clicks?

I found a glitch... sometimes... when u make a game with arrows for contols when u press left it just plain goes right 

I'd like to see that!  Do you have a link?

It might be because the game is using the "When Left/Right Arrow Key Pressed" hat blocks.  If the arrow keys are held down for a long time, the key presses can fill up the keyboard buffer and the action will continue even after the key press is released.  That's why I usually use a Forever Loop with some If Blocks and the sensing blocks "Key Left/Right Arrow Pressed" instead.  They aren't affected by the keyboard buffer.
