Re: Changing the Colour Background!

You could just fill the background with a different color.

That would make sense. If so, I think that's a great idea! Of course, you can already download the image and edit it yourself, but...

If not, Scratch does come preinstalled with a number of backgrounds - just click "import" in the "backgrounds" tab on the stage and they'll all pop up!

On our profiles on the scratch website? Not supported. Not added. Yet.

We can't change the fonts and background colors/images for our profiles on scratch. Yet. It would be cool, but sometimes that leads to bad images. Maybe every picture can be checked by the scratch team/participating scratch members before being uploaded like how the-game-that-starts-with-r does.

That would take forever. I vote for just being able to change the background color, without being able to put images in.

That would be great - you could really show who you are with your My Stuff page.

But you suggested people checking over each image individually - which I commented would take forever.

Are we on the same page now? Sorry for any confusion  smile

It would still probably take a while...

Plus, it would probably not be a good idea getting children to select which images are bad or good - sometimes younger kids don't have a good idea of that, and if they're inappropriate, we just don't want to see that.

The Scratch team could make (or choose) a collection of backgrounds to choose from, as a way to personalize your profile page without having to worry about inappropriate backgrounds. I think it would work, and really want to be able to make my user page a little less bland.

Oh, I see! Yes, I think that is a wonderful idea, and would definitely spice things up.

I like the idea. I'd like a nice patterned background (approved by the Scratch team, of course  big_smile  )
