New remixing possibility?
This is dedicated to those who don't really like the idea of remixing. There's basically two groups of Scratchers. There's the larger group who makes soley games and encourages remixing, and the smaller group that posts soley artwork and are sensitive about remixing. The art group honestly doesn't like remixing. Truthfully, the only thing remixing really does for them is make it so other Scratchers can easily steal and/or recolor their artwork. They only post artwork so people can view it, not use it. So I'm not saying we should get rid of remixing entirely. In the possible future, could there be an option so users can disable remixing on projects they don't desire people to remix? Thank you for your cooperation.

2. Locking downloads
There isn't a sticky on this, but it was going to get here anyway.
This has been proposed several times (I only remember three or so instances of it, and there could have been more). It was cleared up each time...Magnie wrote:
Scratch is open source this has been suggested multiple times, read the license (even though I havn't read it I already know the rules.) It will NEVER happen.

But wouldn't the option to refuse download be against Scratch's motto to imagine, program, and share?
So it's been mentioned already. If locks appeared, the Share part of Scratch would be left behind. Cheddargirl stated what she would do:

Honestly, if I didn't want other people taking the art and music form my projects, I would post my projects on my own personal site and set my own Creative Commons/copyright license or not upload my project to the Scratch website at all.
So you can go with that if you like.
And again, it's not going to happen.

Sorry, I disagree. Sharing and remixing is at the core of Scratch. Besides, if someone really wanted to take your artwork, they could easily get it without remixing.
Oh, this should be is Suggestions too.
