Leave a Note Function
One of my fellow scratchers, Larry828 had the idea of making a project where people can comment if they have a question for the person or something to say to the person that doesn't belong in one of their projects. It would be under their name on their profile page. They would be able to select the picture for it and it would be set up just like a project. But this way it would be easy to contact the person without "tracking sand into their beutiful house". If anyone has an idea about this, please comment.
*It would not be a chat room, but a comment board.*

Scroll down to Larry828's comment, he has a much better explanation.

Re: Leave a Note Function
It would be. Except it would be for something not based on a project, but was still scratch related.

Re: Leave a Note Function
Nevermind...
(Umm... I'm gonna make up a scenario... A bunch of people are working together on a project and don't want someone to steal their idea, so as soon as one is done working on a section they can upload it, wait for the next person to download it, remove it. Then they can still talk to each other about it in someone's comment board. Or if you want to comment about the person being rude.)
(All that in these (..........) I think there is a little miss use there...)

Re: Leave a Note Function
so, like profile comments? Like youtube channel comments?
There are 10 types of people in this world: Those who understand binary, and those who don't. --[insert unrelated transition]-- GRANDILOQUENCE FTW!

It really *is* commenting on a project.... the project that is holding the comments happens to be called "Leave a Note." Here's how it started: I would get a message about one of my projects. But, when I read the message it wasn't about *that* project at all. It was asking "would you like to collaborate?" or "would you check a script that isn't working in a project of mine?"....things like that.
So why not have a project whose whole purpose is to receive comments like that?
And, to make it easy to find, it would be placed right under one's picture on one's own "My Stuff" page.
AND: since it's a project like any other, it's public for everybody to read the comments on...including the Scratch Team. So we keep all the safeguards of the Scratch website.
(If someone leaves a comment on one of my projects, I'd just rather it be about *that* project...not some other subject.)
Making sense??
