That is just silly. You only use HD for video games and movies.

Re: Scratch in HD? How bout' it?

Can some people think about what actually makes sense?

As archmage said, you will only need HD for video games and movies. That rules out most Scratch projects. The only ones left are the projects that are animations and art. The video games wouldn't matter much.

The quality is already excellent. Don't believe me? You can get excellent looking stuff: MyRedNeptune's Hawktalon

uhm if you want scratch in HD you'd most likely be able to run a whopping 1 sprite since HD is very graphically intensive on any computer

Do you mean, like changing the stage size from 480x360, to other resolutions, such as 640x480 or even 800x600?

IMO, that's not necessarynow but would make a good adition in the future.

Re: Scratch in HD? How bout' it?

archmage is right, HD is only for vid-games and movies... Look at this, I don't think it can get any more HD than that...
