You cannot export Scratch Projects (.sb) into other file formats.  However, if you are making an animation in Scratch, you can use Screen Recorder Software like Hypercam and record your video.

Oh, and don't put your email anywhere on the website.

Re: ITopic: Are there ways to share your creation other than the website?

yep, you could use this HTML code 4 youre website: <html>
code= <body>
<applet id="ProjectApplet" style="display:block" code="ScratchApplet" codebase="./" archive="ScratchApplet.jar" height="387" width="482">
<param name="project" value="your progect name here.sb">
</applet>
</body>
</html>

(if you have problems, let me know.)
or you could upload it, click the thing that says embedd, and use that code, (but it's gotta be on the web.

Re: ITopic: Are there ways to share your creation other than the website?

being concerned, as i am, about web standards and knowing that the use of the 'applet' tag is deprecated since HMTL 4.01, i suggest the 'object' tag be used to embed scratch apps in websites. in its simplest form it would be:

Code:

<object classid="java:ScratchApplet.class" type="application/x-java-applet" archive="ScratchApplet.jar" width="482" height="387">
    <param name="project" value="your_project_name_here.sb" />
</object>

if you want to make IE happy the 'object' tag would be a bit more verbose...

iampossible: yeah, the fact that the code in IE is much more complicated made us stay with the non-compliant code

Re: ITopic: Are there ways to share your creation other than the website?

Hi,
I have a student who has used Scratch for a GCSE project. All she needs now is to embed it into a HTML code so she can burn her site to a CD and send to the exam board.

However, when she pastes the code given it doesn't work. I have checked that she has downloaded the correct files - she has. She has the applet, the sound file and the scratch project in the same folder as her html page.

The message in the status bar when the page loads says: Applet ScratchApplet notinited. If you click on where the Scratch story should appear the message in the status bar says Loading Java Applet failed.

Does any one have any ideas to help us out?

We will post her project on the Scratch website once it has been marked by the exam board but first we have to get it into a web page so they can see it.

Thanks for any help.

Re: ITopic: Are there ways to share your creation other than the website?

Just to let you know that I ficed it using the code below instead:

<applet code="ScratchApplet" codebase="./" name="rudolph" width="482" height="387" archive="ScratchApplet.jar" id="ProjectApplet" style="display:block">
      <applet id="ScratchShow" style="display:block" code="ScratchApplet"
            archive="ScratchApplet.jar"  "height="387" width="482">
   <param name="project" value="rudolph">
</applet>

Also, something that may be of help to others - originally with this code not all the sprites appeared on the loading screen so I compressed the images within the project and then it all worked perfectly!

I saw the scratch "softboard" you can do it on a phone and share it to other phones.

Here is an example of a website that presents a Scratch project without having to upload it to the MIT website:

If a movie would suffice and you need help in creating the movie, you can find some somewhat convoluted instructions at http://www.alice.org/community/showthread.php?p=5288

When you get to that page, search for the term "best effort" and that will take you down to the post that contains the instructions.  You may or may not find the other posts in the thread useful.  Only you can decide.

Re: ITopic: Are there ways to share your creation other than the website?

Ms-r   With Scratch you can distribute your Scratch project .sb file to those you want to share with, and if they have the Scratch application they could open it on there end without you having to share your project online. 

The technique described below allows projects to be posted on your own website, or even to be run from a computer without the Scratch application.  There are multiple files involved, and so this approach may make more sense when burning a project to a CD for someone. 

We do not currently have a way to convert  to Flash swf files, but it is an idea that has been discussed and may be considered in the future.

Re: ITopic: Are there ways to share your creation other than the website?

Hasn't anyone found a way to make it work yet? I really want to be able to upload my projects to my own website. I've tried loads of different variations of code and files but nothing seems to work. I think there is a problem with the ScrathApplet..jar code...

My old memory is probably failing me, but I seem to remember that Jens has a way to produce exe files from Scratch projects.

Would it be possible to upload something from a different "version" of Scratch (talking about what Jens does)?

Re: ITopic: Are there ways to share your creation other than the website?

How would you embed if you are using Freewebs? I tried it as an image and it didn't work. I am going to try it as an applet. If that does not work, are there any other easy ways?
