Nice, but what's it used for?
I'm not sure. I found it in a secret directory of the block library website. Pity they don't use it much.

It is a block generator which can generate anything.

I believe the code actually generates the background image using a similar method to Scratch itself. If you want to look at the code, ask TheSuccessor if he'll release it as open-source
Cool! BTW I turned my email autoreply off!

Like he said, I forget who made that generator but for a while everyone was using it.
Now we have nXII's copy to clipboard which is way easier. XD
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
