Scratch

Well, you could copy the Sprite, then edit it so that you erase everything except the needed part. Then fill in the rest. If you're talking about, say, Cloud's hair on Mario, I can't help you.

jonnydean1 got it. It's a bit of a pain, but you just need to export the first costume and import it into the second one, and take out whatever parts you need.

Well, I suppose if you want the mouth and hair to be pretty much separate from eachother, you could make two sprites; one for the hair and the rest of his body, and one for the mouth. You'd have to cut his mouth out of the body, though. Still, it's far better.

I don't know why you are trying to start an argument Harakou. I simply pointed something out. Am I not allowed to be a little disappointed about it?

If you're talking about the ""super-intelligent" MIT geeks" part, all I'm saying is that there's a stereotype of MIT folks being far beyond the above average mark. Maybe they went too far past and missed the common perspective. Haha .. I mean almost all the graphics/animation editors have some way to paste a section of a sprite in one frame into another frame. Maybe it's just so common that they missed it ya know.
<shrugs> If you took offense to that then I'm sorry... that you're so up-tight. ;P
Haha, I've probably wasted more time typing about this nonsense than I would have spent on making the sprites.

I'm not being that negative really, but I am allowed to be if I want you know.
It's great that Scratch is fun and creative and easily shared, and I'm sure the Scratch Team has added more than their fair share and I appreciate that, but that doesn't mean that I can't point something out that they may or may not have noticed was missing. And it's definitely missed by many, i'm sure of that.

Wow ... "up-tight" used in a joking manner is bad here?
Guess I better watch what I say like a hawk then cause I can't get much more PC than that. I hear ya though, I have noticed alot less arguments here than on other sites and that's a very good thing. No dis-respect meant.

Yes, a real copy & paste is a definite must have.

Don't worry too much about it - it's just a little hard to tell who's joking or not on the internet and some people could interpret it in the wrong way 

To add on to what coolstuff said:
One of the values that the Scratch Team likes to emphasize is the idea of respect and keeping the website friendly. While it is fine to express criticisms of Scratch, it is best if they were expressed in a constructive and respectful manner. 

You're quite right Harakou. I'm not really used to nice people.
It's harder to adjust than I thought, but I am trying.
If I sound rude or anything in the future just know that I don't mean to be and give me a little reminder. This place could do me a world of good.

Sometimes attitude is expressed in my words which I don't even realise is there.
I know the psychology behind it because I've studied myself.
It's pent up anger from encountering so many bad things and so much negative emotion/energy/events/people over the years. Alot of what I say gets misconstrued because of my poorly worded text combined with an unstoppable overflow of mindnumbingly negative energy.
