It'll have to be the GIF format - there's plenty of websites which have a vast number of these icons available for free, or you can make your own with programs like GIMP.

Try restaring your computer - that's the best I can think of right now.

If your computer is really old or has really low specs, that can happen...

You can't; it's an archived forum. Even I, as a moderator, can't!

You can, however, go to the Text-Based Games forum, which is a whole forum just for those games. I think the link is here.

So, how do you create a game? Do you have to have a special account? Or do you have to pay? Or contact the Scratch team? (Sorry for al lot of questions! XD)

For some reason but it doesn't have the option 'Post new topic'. (Sorry for sounding like a nag!)
