Make some projects! You need projects to be a 'Scratcher'.

I know, I've been here for over a year, and have more than 3000 posts, and over 40 projects. 

I'm trying to make my projects as good as possible, so they go really slowly.

How's the planning coming along? :3

Lol, if you had 3000 posts you would be at 1000+. Also, upload some projects, please.

(Other accounts)

Okay, I'll get to work on some projects.

Ok, i'm still on hyper beam so far. How do you want him to do the other move? Will he rear up? Will he ram?
Hyper beam going well, the beam comes from the center of his x, if that's okay.

Here is a demonstration of Meteor mash.

P.S. Skip to 4:54.

Until 2.0 is out, on this, our chatroom will be METAPHYSICS. We could set aside some time during the week to work on our collab.

You probably want to link to 2.0, since 3.0 doesn't work. http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/Magnie/2440837

I figured, so I changed it to mathim.com/pycollab

Okay, i've uploaded my animations here
Export the costumes and you'll have quite a lot of frames of animation!
I hope meteor mash is okay, i didn't watch your thing, but i took the name as a hint, it looks like he's throwing exploding rocks.

  thank goodness   
Do you like my animations?
Have a look at 'too much smiling is bad for you' while you're there [-o<   
It is very funny!

Okay, but i'll need a picture of metagross side-on

Hey! I'm making Axel F in 8-bit. I think it should be the theme song for this.

Sorry, i don't do chatrooms. I agree-it would be useful, but i don't do them. Not allowed and stuff. Sorry. 

I don't know-do you like my animations? Surely the least you can do is export all the frames as images- right click on every single costume and export as image. Then you can use them on python.

Serif draw also has animations. The point is, i prefer to animate on scratch because i can upload scratch animations onto the internet.
Also, on python, how do you register a key press, like, how would you get python to react to the up arrow being pressed? Sorry, i'm a beginner, and i haven't found anything that'll do this yet. I mean the python equivilant of this:

 
if <key [up arrow v] pressed?> 
Move (3) steps 
end

Well, assuming already have a main loop (eg. as described here) that looks something like this:

while 1:
    clock.tick(60)

    for event in pygame.event.get():
        if event.type == QUIT:
            return

You can add a handler for the up arrow like so:

        elif event.type == KEYDOWN and event.key == K_UP:
            return

Alternatively, use `pygame.key.get_pressed()` to return the current state of all the keys, and index it with the key constant:

if pygame.key.get_pressed()[K_UP]:
    # do stuff

See the complete list of key constants. Make sure you use `from pygame.locals import *`.

Okay. I have Python 3.2 and 2.5. I downloaded pygame-1.9.2a0.win32-py3.2.msi. It doesn't work. Then I downloaded pygame-1.9.1.win32-py2.5.msi for Python 2.5, and it works fine. So I guess we'll be using Python 2.5 from now on...
