Thanks Andres. I am thinking of ways to evolve the tutorial into a guide or maybe a one-day training course for teachers. The teacher at my local school was very impressed with scratch and I may try and approach the local education authority here in Brighton in the South of England. I do need some feedback on the tutotials though - if you can think of any way to let people know about the tutorials (other than this forum) then please let me know. I am not sure that many people are looking at them.....

Making this item sticky in the forum might be a good idea.

An animation I made.

If you can do flash action scripts, it should be pretty easy to translate the concepts to scratch blocks.  Did you download scratch?  You can't create scratch programs without your own copy.

Actually most flash animations are not made with actionscript (although they could be but it would be more difficult.) Flash has an easy to animate setup with no coding knowledge required. You can set up frames and motion tween symbols to move and add other effects.

just testing a colour

Thanks for this    I have no idea where to start, so I guess I'll start here!

I am a teacher of IT at an Australian high school, introducing Scratch to Year 6. (I have worked with Flash action script in senior year levels). I have found difficulty in getting beyond the basics and then I found your 'fish' tutorial. It is really well done and enables me to see how a 'catch-em' game is created. Thanks for this. More tutorials like this would be great for educators.
I am now interested in a game style where the background changes (Flash uses a second scene) possibly menu driven. I am still trying to work out how this is done in Scratch.

Click the post new topic button in the upper right corner, once you are in one of the main headings. I thought u watched me make the scripts compressor one?

Chao_choas (and all your other accounts), please don't post meaningless stuff on the Forums.  It's annoying to those of us trying to learn things and help with problems.  Thank you.
