Making money from scratch
HELLO i am making a scratch project and i am wondering if i can get some spare cash out of this by NOT selling the game BUT by putting the game on a blog and making cash from any ADS i put on it.
If yes:
anyone know how to put a game on a blog (html code or other)(i also do html,javascript,css)
do i need to ask the scratch team for permission and how to contact them.
if no:
is their any way to get a bit of spare cash (5-10 pounds is enough) from scratch.
thx for your time

Re: Making money from scratch
I don't know if you could earn from it after it was uploaded to the Scratch site. 
EDIT: Read this.

I don't think you can... I'm not sure, so...

1)It's legal.
2)Nobody will ever know

Re: Making money from scratch
It's legal to sell your game if you don't upload it to the Scratch site, and it's also legal to embed games in a blog. For the latter, all you have to do is upload the project you'd like on the blog to Scratch, go to the project's page, and under the description of the project you should see an embed code. Put this code on one of your blog's pages or posts, and you're done.

That's contradictory. They want to post it on a blog that you have to pay for.

No, they said ads would be their only way of earning money on the blog.
