Hi, I was hoping that you could help me with the Stop button (on the menu bar). I am trying to implement a command where if the user presses the Stop button, the program will reset itself to the beginning. Any suggestions???
Thanks!

I'm trying to figure out the utility or usefullness of this program. I also am completely clueless about it. I tried animating a sprite (the cat) and it seemed to work. Now, how do I make two sprites that are on the stage (say the cat and a demon) interact with each other? I feel unbelievably lost with this program and would really appreciate any help for a noob.

Well first you have to get the demon sprite if you don't know how to do that just ask me. Now say you wanted the cat to talk to the demon you could have something like this:
In the Cat:
<when green flag clicked>
<say[ Hello! I'm the scratch cat. ]for( 5 )secs>
<broadcast[ Demon Talk ]
In the Demon:
<when I receive[ Demon Talk ]
<say[ I'm a demon. ]for( 5 )secs>
That is basic talking, but say you wanted the demon to chase the scratch cat you could have something like this:
In the Cat:
<when green flag clicked>
<forever>
<go to[ mouse pointer]
In the Demon:
<when green flag clicked>
<forever>
<point towards( scratch cat)
<move( 10 )steps>
Those are two basic ideas if you have any questions just ask me.

Thanks, I'm going to try this. When I press the flag, both sprites should interact right?

There are many different kinds of forum, could you specify?
One way is to go to www.punbb-hosting.com and make one...

I don't think there is a way to do that, sorry. The only way I can think of would be to right click (or control+click on Mac) on the scripts area and select "save picture of scripts".

Yes, there is a way, Right-click on the script-board(but not on the scripts!), and there should be a selection called "save picture of scripts". Click on it, then you'll know what to do from there.
Also if your script fits entirely on the screen, just right-click on the stage and select "grab screen riegon for new sprite", then you'll know what to do after that.
