If I understand what you mean, you can put the costume images together in a folder, highlight them all, and then drag them into the costumes tab in Scratch.

I see what you mean, but is there a fast way to get all the frames in a video into pictures so i can do that?

Here is good way (Windows)

Download the Video to JPG converter from here:
http://www.dvdvideosoft.com/products/dv … verter.htm

Pick Every Frame then convert the video.

Drag it into a Scratch sprite as bobbybee said.

IMPORTANT: Note the FPS (Frames Per Second) of the video, and for example if its 25 make the script:    (It is 0.04 because 1 divided by 25 equals 0.04)
[blocks]
<forever>
<wait( 0.04
<next costume>
<end>
[/blocks]

ALSO IMPORTANT: If it is a long video, the project might be bigger than ten megabytes (that means you can't upload it). If this happens try reducing the FPS

You can make it into an animated .GIF file and when you import that into scratch as a sprite, it will make every frame of the .GIF as a different costume

i tried that on a gif file, but it only imported the first frame of the gif file.

Ahh yes.

Heres what you do.

1) Import the file ONCE.
2) On the same sprite, import the file again.
3) Delete the first costume, voila!

If you can't get a gif file, my version works perfectly as well. (That's what I use)

You are right! It's just they might not have a gif image.

Importing the file twice, especially if it's a big file would take a while to work. It'd be best if you drew a new sprite first (maybe a zigzag line) then imported the gif (then you delete the zigzag placeholder costume)

On the first import, only the first frame is added.

did not work. so i import it once, then i import the gif file again into a diffrent costume, and then i delete the first one?

No No.

On the sprite you want to import the GIF, go to the costumes tab.

Now, import the GIF file needed,
DON'T DO ANYTHING apart from re-importing the GIF.

Delete un-neede costumes

Yeah, you can just drag it from the folder!
