will scratch make an ipod touch app where you can make scratch projects and upload them to your profile?
I highly doubt that. It would just take up a lot of time and resources which Scratch doesn't have.
However, there used to be an app which allowed you to view projects made in Scratch on the iPhone/iPod Touch. It was removed because it violated the conditions under which it was allowed in the App Store, but it has recently been resubmitted because Apple changed their policy. So, fingers crossed!

Apple didn't change their policy voluntarily though...a law was made that said that Apple can't be so strict about the un-necessary limitations of their products.

Oh, really? How interesting! I was not aware of the reasoning behind that change

Rly? I have heard three reasons why it was deleted:
1. Apple cannot control what projects are uploaded to the scratch website, and could be a way for third parties to make apps.
2. It was coded in Small-Talk and they only want Objective C.
3. Steve Jobs didn't make it into MIT and wanted revenge on them all.

That's a good point - but the reason was because it violated their policy
2. It was coded in Small-Talk and they only want Objective C.
That's not true - it wasn't made in Smalltalk, it was made in Objective C. They wouldn't have let it onto the App Store in the first place if it wasn't made in Objective C.
3. Steve Jobs didn't make it into MIT and wanted revenge on them all.
Now, that's absolutely ridiculous. Steve Jobs probably wasn't even involved in the approval process

Yes, if they are flagged... I think

I have a question about what I can do with Scratch. Can I use movie character like from LOTR in a game?
Well Why Not?

Maybe this has already been asked, but can I get a printshop to print and bind copies of the getting started and reference guides to keep in my classroom? They would not be for sale, just to give the kids a more durable and less wasteful resource guide than printing copies for all of my students in grades 3-6.
Offline
I think that would be alright... those guides are available to everyone for free, so I think it's alright - as long as you don't sell them, of course; that'd be really unfair!
But I'm not from the Scratch Team and such, so I might not be correct.
Offline
Yeah, I'm pretty sure that would be fine... The FAQ page says it ought to be okay:
Can I use Scratch in a textbook or a CD?
Yes, you can create a book about Scratch and include the Scratch software (the binaries) in a CD as well as use the Scratch logo. We do ask to include a note on the book and the CD that says "Scratch is developed by the Lifelong Kindergarten Group at the MIT Media Lab. See http://scratch.mit.edu".
(http://info.scratch.mit.edu/Support/Scr … Permission)
Still, I'm no member of the Scratch Team, but I think as long as you give credit, you should be in the clear

I was wondering. Say you have all of your Scratch works (projects) and you put them on cds and the cd's cost lets say $20 for 50. Could you sell it to cover the cost of the cd, in this instance 40 cents a cd? Basicly the consumer is buying the cd and not the information on it.

What i'm saying is can I sell a cd with scratch and my projects on it for the price that the cd cost me?

Teachers use Scratch in their classes all over the world (or at least in the US) - so I guess it's fine.

Most people do that already - I don't think there's something wrong with making a video of Scratch project.

hi mdausmann. I am very interested in Facebook. We actually have created a Facebook App that lets you send Scratch Greeting Cards. It's in alpha testing mode. http://apps.facebook.com/scratchcard/
Let me know how we can support your creation of your FB App.
Doesn't work.
