Start button costume doesn't work.
That's an image of the title screen.

That's the image of the original start button:
What's wrong? In the original version is a shadow and in the Scratch version is just a black background!

Re: Start button costume doesn't work.
I'm guessing for a drop shadow, you've done that in a different program and exported it into Scratch? 
Checking the properties of that image, It's a PNG which I don't think Scratch can fully understand..
Anyway, try saving the start button as a GIF in whatever you used to create it, and then export it into Sratch and it should work

Scratch 1.4 Reference Guide wrote:
Scratch recognizes many image formats: JPG, BMP, PNG, GIF (including animated GIF).
So I agree with 06dknibbs. I think that's the problem.

Yes, it's a drop shadow, and it's created in gimp.
I tried exporting it as GIF, and look at the result:

A bit better, but still terrible.
Well, since Scratch doesn't support transparency, you could creae a separate drop shadow in Scratch, with the ghost effect and a black box.
