Re: disable download option

Scratch is open source this has been suggested multiple times, read the license (even though I havn't read it I already know the rules.) It will NEVER happen.

Re: disable download option

Oh, this is stupid... So, how many songs you have "illegally" downloaded? Instead of disabling download option (someone who knows what to do will get it anyway), teach people to give a credit! This is free community, and projects are open-source. If you want to make sure yours is yours, watermark it (like I watermarked BWOG's signature with "filo5's graphic shop").

Re: disable download option

Yeah, but you can't watermark every sprite and sound, and if you dou they can just edit it out.

Re: disable download option

I think the option would be nice, but it is a bit too restricting. There si one thing though: suppose you made a brilliant sprite that had three hundred costumes and the sprite was really high quality. You wouldn't want people stealing the sprite and not giving credit, you know. You can beg people to give you credit (though most people wouldn't even want people to use their sprite), but there isn't the guarantee that they will actually bother.

The option would be nice.

But not all are easy to edit out.
