Rubber-stamp architecture

I had not seen a rubber-stamp program for scratch, so I created one (with some assistance from my son) based on the "Fun with Architecture" rubber-stamp set by David Eisen (published by the Metropolitan Museum of Art).

One block that would be nice to have in scratch would be a "snapshot" to capture the current appearance of the screen as a new background for the stage. This would allow interactive art programs (like this rubber-stamp set) to give the user some "save" options, even without file I/O.  (A true save would require file I/O, which may violate security on the applet implementation.)

Re: Rubber-stamp architecture

Very nice program, and I agree that a "screen capture" command block would be a very nice thing to have.  With it you could generate a series of images for an animated GIF or - assuming you have lots of memory and time - even a series of images to generate a movie (Movie Maker includes the basic capability to go from multiple images to video).
