Is this a warning or did everyone get this?
In my messages, I got this from the scratch team:
"We encourage remixing in the Scratch community, since we have seen how remixing can lead to creative, interesting projects. The website includes a "Based on..." link to give credit to the original author -- and we hope that remixers will also give credit in their Project Notes. Overall, we want the Scratch community to be full of creative activity and exciting projects, and remixing helps with that."
Is this a warning or is it trying to make 2010 a year without taking credit for other people's stuff?

I don't think I got that message - I'll check.
No - I didn't get it. It must be a warning.

That's an individual warning - I'm pretty sure. Maybe you flagged some project for remixing?

I'm just wondering about remixing then:
Is it ok to remix a remix and only give credit to the original (not the thing you remixed from?), while only changing the appearance of one sprite?

I think any change to the project big or small is allowed and encouraged but credit must be given to the original creator and depending on what the other person did, give credit to them too.( If they did hardly anything, the "based on" under the project should be enough)
My site Find someone post count. Click posts under username. Find number of pages. Times that by 40 for min and 60 for max and you have a rough estimate of post count.
