http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/benjamin2/301388 is a project I made called The Impossible Quiz. It has no sprites. But according to the download section, it has a sprite. Why is this happening?

That is pretty strange! I'm not sure why that's happening. Try re-uploading the project.

I can't. I deleted it. But I want the scratch team to see this.

How do you mean, you deleted it? You can always reupload without deleting by just uploading the project with the same name, it'll replace the project you already have.

I think he means he deleted it off his computer wink

You could always download your project, then set the name to the original project's name, then upload it... see if that fixes it smile

Nothing happened.

Well, then, that is truly strange. I'm not sure what else you can do...

Maybe you used a secret sprite?

But if not, this is really strange ...

EDIT: I checked it. There is no sprites.

I think you have managed to slightly confuse the Scratch program somehow...I downloaded it and can't find a sprite anywhere. I tried dumping out a project summary (Shift click on the File menu) and that reports zero sprites as well. Strange!

Chrischb · 2010-05-23 05:43:32

There are ways to hide sprites... hmm
A way to make them show is to share the project, download it, and examine it. smile

I downloaded said project... I tried several ways - including changing the background colour, and importing the project into another one... and Paddle2See tried the project summary way... hmm This is a really confusing glitch!

Chrischb · 2010-05-23 07:20:27

Oh! I think it's a trick - it makes you think you're clicking buttons and such; for example, the first question tells you to click the button on the right - however, clicking anywhere will always move you on! smile

EDIT: Wait... that's stupid... it says there's a sprite. xP

There is not a sprite! I did not hide it! And Chrischb that's actually the point.

Apart from you always lose on question 4.

Maybe this is what happened:

I tried to make a sprite (because I did) and then didn't need it, so changed my mind and quit the paint editor before making the sprite. Maybe it added one to the count, then forgot to take it off.

That sounds like a reasonable explanation - I am confused as to why that doesn't happen to most users when posting projects, though - I almost always do that.

For some reason, when I triede to summary, it's now counting the Stage as a sprite. So it's somehow confused the stage for a sprite.
