It worked for me. sorry.

Looks like there's a typo:

Code:

| t2 t3 |
    t3 _ '| t1 t2 t3 |
    t1 _ ''' , t1 , '''.

Try this (I haven't tested it):

Code:

dreamod (improved by Greenatic)
save project at directory $String$
-
#E6A822
    |t1 t2 t3|
    self closeMediaEditorsAndDialogs ifFalse: [^ self].
    self stopAll.
    t1 size = 0 ifTrue: [^ self].
    self updateLastHistoryEntryIfNeeded.
    t3 _ (self nameFromFileName: t1)
                , ''.pt''.
    projectDirectory _ FileDirectory on: (FileDirectory dirPathFor: t3).
    projectName _ FileDirectory localNameFor: t3.
    projectInfo at: ''author'' put: author.
    self updateHistoryProjectName: projectName op: ''save''.
    self writeScratchProject'.
    t2 _ self ownerThatIsA: ScratchFrameMorph.
    t2
        ifNotNil: [Compiler
                evaluate: t3
                for: t2
                notifying: nil
                logged: false]

That wasn't a typo. t3 is supposed to store a string with text that is going to be interpreted as code for a ScratchFrameMorph, The string quotes are supposed to be there.

Alright then, I think you're missing a quote and a period at the end.

t3 _ '| t1 t2 t3 |

That one just came up with a "Syntax Error"

Did you add '. to the end of that part, then put the rest back in?

Hey Greenatic, so what are you thinking for the downloadable Scratch files? Are we going with the same [v] download arrow image as in the BYOB section with a "block number" and a "view source" link like Panther?

I honestly hadn't given it much thought.     That sounds good, although I've never understood the usefulness of a "block number"...

The block number just lets you easily use the import block block. It's probably not necessary for the Scratch section.

Or..
A Download link. (This takes you to the front page.) It would be easier for people...

What sparks is proposing is:

a download link image (as seen in the BYOB section)
a "view source" link

Sounds great!   

That's what I hade in mind.

I don't know what you mean (Since I have no IDEA about Squeak)
Wait - in the Syntax error window I got this:

t3 _ '| t1t1 t2 t3|
t1 _ 'C:Argument expected ->\Users\*Me*\My Documents\Scratch Projects\Somthing.pt'.
    self closeMediaEditorsAndDialogs ifFalse: [^ self].
    self stopAll.
    t1 size = 0 ifTrue: [^ self].
    self updateLastHistoryEntryIfNeeded.
    t3 _ (self nameFromFileName: t1)
                , ''.pt''.
    projectDirectory _ FileDirectory on: (FileDirectory dirPathFor: t3).
    projectName _ FileDirectory localNameFor: t3.
    projectInfo at: ''author'' put: author.
    self updateHistoryProjectName: projectName op: ''save''.
    self writeScratchProject'.
    t2 _ self ownerThatIsA: ScratchFrameMorph.
    t2
        ifNotNil: [Compiler
                evaluate: t3
                for: t2
                notifying: nil
                logged: false]

EDIT: Ok. I got it. Cut and Paste to the rescue.
EDIT 2: WAIT! I think I might have fixed it - I was tinkering around with the code.
EDIT 3: Yeah. I fixed it. I modified Dreamod's coding and it seems to work fine now. I changed a t2 somwhere into a t3 and it works fine

So. People should be able to see that the Scratch Motion section of the library now has the new block renderer in place, and all the images have been moved to the blocks.scratchr.org site. It took me a long time. Why? (These are tips, btw)

1) Scratch won't allow an image to be displayed from blocks.scratchr.org if the http:// isn't present. So it'll display http://www.blocks.scratchr.org/images/blocks/someImage.png but won't display www.blocks.scratchr.org/images/blocks/someImage.png. I found this out right at the end and had to go back and add it everywhere.

2)Scratch won't display an image that has spaces in its url. Rather annoyingly this means you have to use %20 instead. So it will accept http://blocks.scratchr.org/images/blocks/spec.php?s=move%20%n%6010%60%20steps%20towards%20%d%60sprite1%60&type=-&color=motion but won't accept http://blocks.scratchr.org/images/blocks/spec.php?s=move n%6010%60 steps towards %d%60sprite1%60&type=-&color=motion. Notpad ++ helped me replace all spaces in these urls with %20.

3) A word to the wise, Notepad ++, in the settings I have, at least, can't display the █ character, replacing it with ¦...

I got a question, how did you post all those topics before anybody else posted.

That's right. I basically posted about 20 posts, all with a message asking people not to post yet. I was very lucky really, considering how people love to post 

@Greenatic, yes, nXIII did the renderer, he says he'll improve the quality this weekend 

W00t! Thanks so much for your hard work, Sparks and nXIII!

The block renderer is great! But the color 'variable' is green. Is that a bug or am I wrong?

Is something wrong with the blocks.scratchr.org site? My computer came up with an error when I went to it, and all the images are gone.

No, I think everything is fine. I noticed the site had some down time a few hours ago, but the images are all still there 

Hmm, I still get the broken image picture on all the block renderer created pics.
