Import all costumes in folder

Is it possible to include an option in the next version called "Import All" that will import all the pictures in the folder selected?  This would be helpful, say, with complex animations, or if the user wished to create a "slideshow" of sorts.

Re: Import all costumes in folder

You can already do that.

Go to the folder that contains the chosen costumes.
Open the "Costumes" tab in Scratch.
Highlight all the files you want improted in Scratch.
Drag them with your mouse into the "Costumes" tab.

Voila! ^_^

Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>

Re: Import all costumes in folder

How about a feature to paste selected images from the clipboard?  Because some of the images I am trying to use are part of a tile set, and I can't import the whole thing without it shrinking.

...I have figured out how to copy it without getting the background in the picture, but it still won't paste into Scratch.
