Custom folders for Save project and/or Import pics etc - ?

I wish to share folders with stuff (particularly sprite pictures etc) easily among friends via services like Dropbox, Google Drive etc. But, it is difficult to locate these locations smoothly in Scratch. How can I extend the default folders (ie. the "Computer | me | Desktop | Costumes") to also show folders of my choice?

Thank you!

(Oh, when I say Google Drive, I'm referring to the local desktop version, ie not something online. Thank you!)

I don't understand what you are trying to do. Are you trying to make your files more organised? Do you know how to create new folders?

The buttons on the left of the "Save As" window. He wants to add his own folders.

Yes correct, thank you - and also in the "Import costume" window (when importing a costume for a sprite). It is very popular with various services that enable shared windows folders - so that you can have one folder containing eg. images for potential sprites etc for joint projects.

Add custom folder [path] in the left hand column, is it possible?

Again, thank you all.

You have to go into C:\Program Files\Scratch\ then you can mess around.

You can't add a custom path on the left hand column. However you can add additional folders (through Windows Explorer) within, say Costumes for easier access.
