It appears Softpedia has put Insanity on their website.
http://www.softpedia.com/get/Programmin … nity.shtml

Anyway, there are over 500 downloads for the Windows version and over 300 for the Mac version!!!

I just renamed the "Squeak" category to "System".

Let me correct those figures:
Over 800 for Windows and 90 for Mac (and 30 from the real site  )

You should link to the site in the description if it will let you.

I am working hard on Insanity 1.1 again.
I have finally decided to name the bright green category "System", and have moved some blocks there.
I have also added quite a few other blocks and fixed all of the bugs I could find.

Does anybody want a dev preview?

I have a few minor complaints as to 1.0. They could easily be fixed for 1.1, though so don't worry. 

First off: There are two options for "hand" in the cursor block.

Secondly: There are two of the same block, in different categories.

Thirdily    : What's the point of this block? It's always going to return true. No matter what. How would you use it in programming?

1. Fixed
2. I know, I just couldn't decide where to put it 
3. It's to see if you are using Insanity or a web player

1. Okay, good. 

2: I think it most belongs in "control" because it's controlling the project itself, not to mention it is a combination of two pre-existing control blocks. (Even though it does look cooler in the more section.  )

3: Ah, I see. I think you should change the text to be a little more clear. That can confuse younger users.

I also noticed: Insanity, and SuperNineteen (Refer to signature) use the same Weebly design. 

2. Ok, I'll remove the one under More
3. What text should I use?

Also, I see. I didn't like any of the other ones and was too lazy to program the site myself.

That would reverse the block, though. 
I think that the current text is the best option.

You could just change the text and reverse the true/false reporting. It's easier in my opinion, especially since I was confused with the text of the original block. It's your mod though, and your decision.

At some point, I am going to create a help file, and I will explain it there.

Do you think there is a way to change to font of blocks?

That would be cool 

There probably is somewhere, but I'm guessing it's not easy.
Besides, I like the one that's already used.

I would suggest using the one that's already used, and I used to know how to do this, but I forgot. 

I really just can't see Scratch blocks with comic sans.

I started once, but I had a problem drawing the screens. I may try again someday.

However, more likely, I will just make a PDF catalog of the new blocks.

Sorry, I am not accepting developers. Thanks for offering, though.
