Hi!

Great idea, sparks! I probably could become more organized that way. I could set a folder aside on my site for all the blocks, then have an option to either go directly to that folder from here to browse the blocks or browse them from the block library.

You could build off of nXIII's old patcher system for the blocks! 

Yes, that sounds brill! Does that mean each sprite needs to be hosted on your site? If so, SSBBM and I could email the .ypr files to you?

I could use the patches system, I don't know how to use it though... nor do I know how to tell someone how to install a patch.

Yeah, the files would need to be hosted on my site. You could go ahead and email them to me. (I've got your email already, just so you know.)

Take a look at one of nXIII's patches in Notepad or the like and see if you can decipher them. I'd look through them now, but I'm doing a bunch of things at once right now 

Here's the download for my (ask [] and wait) block.

sorry. My mistake. No comment on the update then? 

Sorry  . Yeah, I like it! It'll be much easier for people to get the blocks now.

Oh my gosh.
(note to self: how do I get sparks to add my blocks? I'm gonna have to plan.)  DO NOT highlight note to self.

operators

( (5) (+) (5) )

blockspec:

('%s %s %s' #r #pleaseAdd:with:to:)

pleaseAdd: t1 with: t1 to: t3
t2 = '+' ifTrue: [^ t1 + t3].
t2 = '-' ifTrue: [^ t1 - t3].
t2 = '*' ifTrue: [^ t1 * t3].
t2 = '/' ifTrue: [^t1 / t3].
^ error!

addThisBlock
| t1 |
t1 _ askInDialog: 'sparks, will you add this block for me?'.
t1 response = 'yes' ifTrue: [^ happyness].
t1 response = 'no' ifTrue: [^ go insane].

Here's my boolean ask/answer block! (yes it is a completely different block from the reporter.)

Could you please continue to post blocks with a screenshot of the block code and a picture of the block? It's really helpful for me 

I need a little help with making scratch blocks. Where do you put the code? I have searched, but I can't figure it out. I know how to put the block there, but it doesn't do anything. Please help.

Off-topic: my 60th post!

ysp is the file name of a BYOB sprite! You get it by right-clicking on a BYOB block sprite and choosing "Export this sprite" and there are some beginning to appear in the BYOB section of this library so you can download a sprite containing the requested block.
