Re: Bookworm Studios: The new and unique Scratch Collaboration!

And I'll organise everythig and try and clear up any confusion about anything on this migration with the first post of the new topic. And we should still use this topic, for the lighter hearted lazy stuff.

Those are all awesome ideas. I like the idea of writing bits of a book each. Chapters sounds about right, yeah.
For starters cheeseater, we need some stuff in them! At the moment, all there is is a tutorial on making scratch ebooks. Really, we should have a 'best this month' award for the best ebook in the gallery ever month, but there aren't an ebooks really.
Someone could make ebooks full of ideas.
We could make a poetry collection!

I have made four new banners, I just need to get them online. They are high tech looking, blue and black mainly. I have changed our mascot to a long, sleek blue worm with a pointy nose. On the banners, he is shown using his nose to write with.
There is also a lot of warped binary in the background.
I'll try and get them online as soon as I can.
smile  I'm quite proud of them, they're good for my standards. There are four, so if you want them in your signatures, there's plenty to choose from  smile 

Who here as actually tried Reading that ebook tutorial I made? There are ideas for ebooks in there. What we really want to do is to populate the gallery, with anything! It could be anything from cat art to weird fanfics about mr bean joining frankie goes to Hollywood.
One rule for the gallery at the moment: it has to be creative. And I should delete that version of the gallery. Cheeseater is gallery owner and should control the gallery fully.
Cheeseater can filter out the spam and judge the best gallery entry every month or so.

Cool, this sounds like a plan! Do you mean we delete the whole gallery, or just sections of it. I cannot edit the gallery because Humhumgames created it, maybe i could make a new gallery, and slowly cut & paste the books from the old to the new?
Also for the ebooks thing i am making a template for what it should look like and how the scripts work. It'd be a bad thing if the ebooks that work in different ways, i suggest anyone who wants to make an ebook takes a look at the templte first.
Anyway, what do you think?
Thanks, Cheeseeater

Re: Bookworm Studios: The new and unique Scratch Collaboration!

Monthly writing contests. Definitely.
Book chapter by chapter. Definitely.
We should have a new topic for each of those. This can be the talking and being weird topic.
And the new topic can be for writing scratch ebooks collaboratively.
E.g. Someone has an idea for a book and posts it on the forums. Someone can edit it, then the person puts it into an ebook. They find an illustrator to add to it, and they put the finished book into the gallery.
Of course they could have no illusrations and write it into the ebook straight away, but they wouldn't need the new topic for anything.
Get the idea? A bit? Maybe?

Re: Bookworm Studios: The new and unique Scratch Collaboration!

Ive made an ebooks gallery. We delete that. Humhums made a gallery. We ignore or get that deleted. You make a gallery and let anyone edit it, and add your templates and the ebooks tutorial. I link to that in the new topic.
And I'll try and upload the banners very very soon.  smile

Re: Bookworm Studios: The new and unique Scratch Collaboration!

Well you can never be too happy.

Unless of course you're happy that you just did something homicidal.

Or if you  aren't really happy, you're just on drugs.

Okay, you can be too happy.

But there isn't anything wrong with lots of smilies. I will have to get on and make this thread then.

Inside it we have pinnipediator's cool guide, and my template that isn't working properly.(hopefull i can fix it because i have now posted a new qustion asking about it in scripts forum)I am now going to now make the new library, but i will say it is still under construction, because it might go wrong if people post on it.
This all ok?
Thanks, Cheese

Re: Bookworm Studios: The new and unique Scratch Collaboration!

Not right now.
If there are going to be monthly competitions, who is going to run them, also, who is going to run the chapter by chapter thing?
Whisperfur+mint, if you two decide who runs the chapter by chapter thread, and who runs the competitions, then then I can make a thread for each and you can run them.
And of course there's scratch 2.0. Shall I try and make 2.0 threads or 1.4 threads?

Re: Bookworm Studios: The new and unique Scratch Collaboration!

I think you should make 1.4 threads because I can't log onto 2.0  sad 
Anyways, do you want me to help in any way? I can run the competitions if a more experienced Bookworm member doesn't want to.

I could do the competitions. I'm feeling a bit left out, if you haven't noticed.
