How to get a Picture on Scratch for your Icon

There are some steps to getting icons on to your account. Follow these and you will have the best icon!  big_smile

1. Go to either www.google.com or www.photobucket.com. (These are the best websites with the best icons! I would try photobucket first. ;D)

2. If your on Google, click on Images in the top left corner of your screen, and type in the thing you want as an icon. (Ex.- smiley face.) If your on Photobucket, look in the top RIGHT corner of your screen, and you will see a search thingy. Type in icons in that box, and another screen thingy will pop up. Then you will see something in the middle of the screen thats like the box you typed in before. Type in the thing you want as an icon. (Ex.-Mario)

3.When you see the image you want, RIGHT click on that image. (MAKE SURE you RIGHT click it. Right click is when you click on the OTHER side of the one you usually click stuff.)

4. When you do that, a list will pop up. Select the third one from the top, Save Backround as... and click on it. When you click on it, a window (Those boxes are called windows usually.) will pop up. When you get that, look at the bottom right of that window, and hit save.

5. Once you do that, go to Scratch, type in your username and password.(Unless your already logged in.)

6. When your in My Stuff, (Your projects, basiclly.) Look at where it shows your picture, and you will change your picture. (Its underlined. ;D) Click on that.

7. A type in thing will appear with the word "Browse" next to it. Click on browse and a window/box will appear. Click on the picture you want,  and either click the picture you want twice, or click on your picture and hit open. Once that happens, the box will dissappear. You will see some random letters. (Ex.- C:/users/used/smile_face.)

8. Click update, and it may take a momment to load. Then, TA DAH! You got your icon! Do the same thing with animated ones, too. You can also do it with gallery pictures! Have fun!  big_smile
