Scratch

Hi jon182, maybe you could upload and share your project so we'll be able to have a look at it. That way it'll be much easier to help you! (Afterwards you can just re-share it under the same name again)

Oh, I beleive its because you need to make it say "You win" for 2 seconds, instead of say it and then wait 2 seconds manually. Try just using the say You win and wait 2 seconds block and take out the wait 2 seconds block.

so anyone know purley legally could i???? also why +#2 is messing up?

i figured it out as far as the speed thing goes. (though it's not as good as i hoped it works) thanks thouogh, so any1 know number three?

this isn't legal advice or anything, but as a hypothetical I believe the creative commons license attaches once the project is shared on the website, so in theory you could claim copyright as long as you didn't post it here.

thx all. i will trry it i doubt scratch would sue a 13 year old kid.

i know it'snot likely but i think i know ppl who would and i would like it if an admin could give me a sure answre on 3

As the creator of your project, you own the copyright and can sell it if you like.

The right way to protect a creative work is with a copyright notice (not a trademark - a trademark is used to protect a product name or logo).  You can add a copyright notice screen to your project.  This is simple; just add a screen that says:
"Copyright (c) 2008 <your name>"

If your project contains any images or characters created by others (e.g. Mickey Mouse or the Scratch Cat), you'd need to get permission from the owners of those images or characters before you can sell it.  You have our permission to use the Scratch Cat logo in your projects.  Please give credit to us, for example:
"Scratch is a project of the MIT Media Lab - Lifelong Kindergarten Group
http://scratch.mit.edu "

Finally, do not post your project on the Scratch website if you are not willing to have others use it to make their own versions of projects.  If you post it, you still own the copyright and can sell your own project, but it will not prevent anyone from using it to create their own projects.
