Scratchlive, I have to tell you that you shouldn't be saying "Your in." Rather, do "You're in." (I told you you needed grammar check!
)

I'll take whatever position you have. I have been scratching since 2009 and I design 3d and 2d sprites for anyone who asks nicely...

I started 2008
Favourite part of scratch is the friendly community and easy customization as well as easy scripting.
Favourite scratcher... illusionist makes a few good ones... and also scratchlive
favourite project? I think I like those drift games that i've added to my favourites
I would change in scratch so it can use files and combine them

I'd like to join in the help and advise column. I was actually thinking about suggesting this column before I read your whole first post.
Also, I made a quick magazine page graphic. I hope this is kinda what your looking for
I made this really fast so if you want I'll spend a little more time and make a better one.

Well, all the graphics for my games are made in the scratch paint editor, but that magazine page was made in photoshop. Why, did you like it?

btw, here's my article
Your guide to making a better project.
Making a project can be hard. We all know that, but you can make it easier by following this easy guide.
Step 1: Start with a good idea. Don't just start making a project, think about it. Start with what you want the game to be like. Do you want it to be a scroller, a fighting game, ect. but always try to be original. Don't make projects that have been done a million times. After that try and think of the main scripts and how your going to make the main things work. Don't settle for less, I sometimes think for days on how I'm going to make my scripts. Also go out and do stuff, play other games, hang out with friends, go to the store or anywhere else. Inspiration is everywhere, don't let scratch take up your life or your projects will just get boring.
Step 2: Make good graphics. Don't just draw some squares and circles in the scratch paint editor. Zoom in and put some time into it, and remember, 'it can always be better'. And try to make a walk cycle. Don't just have your character lift one foot and start moving.
Step 3: Always take tips. The customer is always right. Listen to what the community is saying, and be open to ideas.
Step 4: Try and make a good picture. When someone looks at your project icon make them curios about your project. Make it interesting, if it's not people aren't going to look at it.
Just follow these steps and your projects will get better and better.

Here is my article.
Hello, this is Necromaster, front page analyst and reporter.
I normally have begun to hate games on the front page, mostly because it's only animations and stuff like that. But lately, I've been noticing some really great stuff up there. Like 08jackt's Scratch Brawl X on the top loved. I've noticed only one animation up there lately, by Astro947. Anyway, These days, I haven't been noticing any good games in the community lately. I came across a great project by Colkadome, and I looked at the date. Colkadome shared this 2 years, 4 months ago. All the great games are mostly 2 or more years old! So, I started taking a tally of projects on the front page.
I came up with this in february:
Games: 5
Animations: 18
Art: 4
Wow, animations are DOMINANT! Well, I hope we can get back to that gaming age. But I've noticed CoolerThanIce, (One of our recent curators) has curated mostly (if not all) games! Well, I think we might be slightly coming out of the age of animation.
I've also decided to include one game that I thought was excellent:
Rock Paper Scissors, by LilacFuzz101
http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/lilacfuzz101/1293782
Amazing, I had a lot of fun with it! Really addicting.
Well, I guess that's all from me! -Necro.

I started scratch about a year ago my fave part of scratch is probably programming your projects. My fave scratchers I think are : swifty2, x-cube, m44, rhy, colkadome, and bentheneighbor. My fave project on scratch is the game GRIVEN by bentheneighbor. If I could change scratch I would make an "I receive" sensing block on the program.

You should say that to just about every scratcher on the planet... I take great pride in my grammar.

Scratch Brawl X is the leader in projects that are designed for the flash player.
It has a powerful A.I and there are know glitches.
You mainly fight scratchers there are a couple of mini games.
It has very good graphics.
But there is one small draw back some times it displays the wrong user at the start.
is that okay scratchlive
