downloading

Does anybody know why I receive the message "Could not read, bad header", when I try to download a project? I have a desktop and that happens every single time I try to download a project.

I took a look at your projects and it seems like you are using a very old version of Scratch. You are probably downloading projects made in Scratch 1.3 or higher, which is giving you the bad header error.

I recommend upgrading to Scratch 1.4. That is the current version of Scratch and should open any Scratch project on the website up to this date.  smile

Everything is better when you add a little cheddar, because when you have cheese your life is at ease  smile
