Editing Sprites

Is it possible to edit sprites downloaded in the .sb format with a more advanced editor like Photoshop or Fireworks?

Re: Editing Sprites

sangecko: Yes, you can export a sprite's costume as GIF by right clicking on it in the costume list. Then you can edit the GIF with any other program you like and import it back into Scratch by either dragging it into the costume list again, or by importing it using the "Import" button in the Paint Editor.

Re: Editing Sprites

I was going to answer this question, but I'd forgotten about the "hidden" right-click actions, and couldn't remember how to save a costume.  Why is that a hidden feature?  Why are any of the features hidden behind right clicks?

Unusually I'm with Kevin on this one  smile

I didn't know you could export to GIF by right-clicking -  when you do this it doesn't say its exporting it as a GIF - I'd always assumed it was exporting in some sort of scratch format (like a sprite export)  sad

If you've got several costumes - does it export as an animated GIF?

You misunderstood the point a bit. You can't export a sprite as a GIF, you can export one of it's costumes as a GIF. So if you have an animation you will have to export each costume seperately.

Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>
