Idea for Scratch Forums: [applet] BBC Code piece.
There should be an [applet] BBC Code piece for playing Scratch Games on the forums.
Here are the instructions, by me:
1. Type "[applet]" without "'s.
2. Type the letters in the third pane of HexEdit after [applet].
3. Lasty, repeat step 1 but add this before the word applet: /.
Forget about full stops, I put them there to stop the sentence continuing.

Re: Idea for Scratch Forums: [applet] BBC Code piece.
Something like [applet=(# of project)] would be good. And it's BBCode

Re: Idea for Scratch Forums: [applet] BBC Code piece.
An interesting idea...but how would it help the Forums better perform their primary function of information exchange? I suppose people could build tutorials that could be viewed in the forums - that would be cool - but I suspect that people would use it more to promote other types of projects and we would drown in a sea of applications

Actually, I don't know if FluxBB supports that too, but in some phpBB mods, you can allow certain BBcodes to be used only on certain forum areas.

That's crazy. The "sea of applications" is going to be spam, right?

The whole URL isn't necessary, there's only one site for Scratch projects anyways.

It doesn't have to be.
I agree with Paddle... we're probably just going to clutter the forums with projects. And projects in signatures... 
Why can't you just give a link to the project, anyway? There's no need to actually view it in in the forums.

Re: Idea for Scratch Forums: [applet] BBC Code piece.
Perhaps [applet=(url of project)]
@Jonathanpb, they could disable projects for signatures, just like they have quotes disabled for signatures

Recommandtion: Disallow projects for Signatures.
It's just to make real applications on my TB OS.
