Re: QUICK QUESTION- how do I make platforms that sprites can stand on?
There is probably an infinite way to do this- I'll post a project in a little bit that shows you the basics. In the meantime, you should probably look around for ones that you can look at and download.
EDIT: Welcome to Scratch!

Re: QUICK QUESTION- how do I make platforms that sprites can stand on?
Welcome to scratch. There are three main ways, each with their advantages and disadvantages.
1) colour sensing: Make the platforms or the edges of the platforms a certain colour and use the "<Touching color?>" block to sense if it is touching the platform.
2) make the platform one sprite, and use the "<touching [platform]?>" block to determine if your player is touching it.
3) if all parts of the level are the same height (one flat surface) you can use the <[]<[]> (less than?) block with a (Y position) block and the height of the platform (e.g. <[(Y position)] < [-200]>
Hope that helps

And the last possible way....
If you want sensing for a specific spot, use Color [] is touching [color to be touched]
Do blah blah blah....
Back in my day.... there were no laws that censored the internet... now, there are.... nah.

This looks like it may fit a little more nicely into the "All About Scratch" forum... That's where pretty much all programming questions go. I'll move it there for you.
