scratch is about programming (you notice that it's called a programming language)

But do you have any real proof thst Scratch was meant for programming?  smile

Surely any label of Scratch ("programming" language) may be interpreted in such a manner that would support your opinion, so you can't actually count that as "proof". There are a lot of notices in the numerous "about Scratch" pages that promote both programming and art.  smile

Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>

Re: What is really ridiculous........(what really is + my opinion)

scratch does have a paint editor,but it's simple and very straight forward. when you compare that to the scripting part, the scripting part is way more complex and elaborate, with variables, lists, sensing and numbers. while art does play a factor,THE SCRIPTS play the major role. Art is more a means to an end (or just a part to make up the whole), rather than art being the end itself. otherwise scratch would have been much more art oriented with barley, if any scripts and a more complex editor
