Built-in Script editor in the forums

Rather than the hard-to-read block adding system we have now, I think we should add a real block editor for the forums.

It would look something like this:

When the upload button is clicked, a picture of the script will be uploaded to an image hosting site (I recommend tinypic) and then the DIRECT LINK code will be automatically  inserted into your post.

Example:

Code:

Tell me what you think!  big_smile

Good idea! We need to update our blocks.

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: Built-in Script editor in the forums

Great idea!

It's sort of hard to build scripts in the forums. So why not make it easier?

Will this be hard for the Scratch Team though?

Re: Built-in Script editor in the forums

This is a great Idea, but I would rather not use Image shack, as for my parents banned it from my computers. Maybe tinypic or something else?

Re: Built-in Script editor in the forums

Brilliant idea!

Out with the messy scripts.
In with the cute, beautiful scripts!

We shall bump this up if we have to!

Re: Built-in Script editor in the forums

You know... With the web data thing they might implement, another addition part of it, they could upload the blocks to the web data page thing. ( I have no idea.  tongue  )

All we need is someone who is good with Java.

Support! I was just posting something and I was totally thinking that blocks could be so much better! The only thing is how to implement it...

Re: Built-in Script editor in the forums

It would take more bandwidth but, it helps the overall quality of the scratch forums. I like the idea. It's just there would have to be so many connections from the scratch script editor to the forums.
