Okay, every project file contains these and probably more:

Coding for what sprites look like
Coding for sounds
Coding for every block, including the things typed in it.
Coding for where the blocks are positioned in the scripting area
Project notes and name

How are you filtering all of that?

It wouldn't have coding for every block (that's stored in Scratch.image)

All we need is sound, costumes, and scripts.

This is what I can do...
* Project notes
* Scripts and blocks

What I can't do...
* sounds
* pictures

The pictures are a .gif format and I'm unsure on how to seperate them? 
(same with the sounds)

Can you make a start on them plz

I can have a go at the first two but the sounds and images are the hard one. Can anyone do this or know how to?

I can help fix bugs if you have any, but can write anything else if you get me.

Do you like the website?

I think a good way to go about this would be to (tell me if I'm wrong)...
Make a text based scratch on the web. It will have all the normal features of scratch and extras. Then there is no decoding images and sounds. They can just be uploaded to the website! 

Tell me what you think.

Good idea, but I still think we need to figure out how to decode a .sb file. Did the Scratch Team ever release the source for the java player?

you can get the scripts ect by renaming it to javaplayer.zip then you can access all the files in it and mod it! 

Would this one have less lag? My project destroys the real one.

I bet it will have less lag. After all, it doesn't need it's own process.

EDIT: jd1, maybe you should put a link to the website on the first page.

We could even allow users to upload a project and then it decodes it into our new text based script language. Then we have a HTML5 and JS player.

That may be better. We could use Java or any language to decode then.

Or (If the Scratch Team would let us) we could read it off of the Scratch database so that you could view any project.

Just use a dialog like, enter either
a url to your project
or a file path

Hey guys, maybe after we finish the viewer, we could try to remake Scratch in HTML and JS. It'll take a while, but I bet we can do it.

Yeah, thats what I thought!
