save, upload, on/offline blocks

[blocks]<when green flag clicked>[/blocks]
It would be nice to have a save block, or a block that uploads your project, that would also work on the online player. This is a way for someone, if they beat the high score on your game, to re-upload the project with their time. The "save project" block should only work offline though.

There should also be a block to tell if you're on/off line, because now that the online player has been updated, there is no way of knowing if your project is on or off line.

Just some suggestions!

Re: save, upload, on/offline blocks

Nice ideas, except:
If you want to make a game only playable offline, make a large black screen if front of the whole thing that says something like, "please download and remove this sprite".
