Haha, thanks, ProgammingFreak and SSBBM! I consider it quite a feat considering my usual concentration levels when crossing roads...  big_smile  I seem to remember commenting somewhere here quite a while ago saying "My life expectancy has greatly increased since I stopped licking wall-sockets" and I stand by that statement.

LOL nice sig sparks. Glad it wont be your last!  tongue  XD (Or will it be....)


If you are reading this, please read to the end, because if you don't you won't know what's at the end. Don't just skip to the end though otherwise you won't be able to read the middle, which is most important. Now you must be wondering why you just read all that, the reason is you may have not noticed something, read it again and see if you notice it this time  smile

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

http://www.freewebs.com/polyeztahpuppies/pausescratch.gif

Code:

('pause Scratch for %n seconds' #- #PauseScratch:)

PauseScratch: t1
(Delay forSeconds: t1) wait

http://www.freewebs.com/polyeztahpuppies/crashvm.gif
Note:  I don't think this causes any permanent harm to your computer or Scratch, just does a close without warning and gives you an error message.  This is caused by it using too much memory.  I'm not sure how it works on Apple or Linux. 

Code:

('crash the VM' #- #CrashVM)

CrashVM
self changeGraphicEffect: 'water ripple' by: 100

Scratch-Blocks > CommandBlockMorph > accessing > isStop
Add to the "or" statement:

Code:

(selector = #CrashVM)

Re: ITopic: Welcome to your local block library!

I'm currently trying to connect the block library site to one of my own MySQL servers to see if that improves the data storage. Problem is the cpanel for dreamhost is  404ing so I can't get in to edit any of the files! Once I do, I'll have a look about email notifications and possibly adding Greenatic as TheSuccessor's successor.

I had an idea for how librarians and developers could edit the site without having access to the cpanel and that's through reading and loading any page's code into a textarea accessible for librarians. The can then edit the code in the window and it will then save and update the page file with the new content. I'll have to look up how this is done but it shouldn't be too hard.

If you are reading this, please read to the end, because if you don't you won't know what's at the end. Don't just skip to the end though otherwise you won't be able to read the middle, which is most important. Now you must be wondering why you just read all that, the reason is you may have not noticed something, read it again and see if you notice it this time  smile
