Two good suggestions
I love Scratch! I love making video games! But I have more ideas, and I got two good suggestions you should all agree to.
1. Increasing the file size limit
Agent Blueberry is my best adventure game I've ever made. But I can't post it up on Scratch anymore, because the game has become too big and advanced for the Scratch website. I wanted to show my games to everyone so badly! Is it possible to increase the file size limit?
2. making Layers a variable
I have looked for numerous ways of making a 3D game in Scratch. I tried creating a 3D model from animation master, but the gameplay is still flat. I also tried using both the layers and size commands to make a z-axis for Agent Blueberry, but everything is too glitchy. Making a 2D game look 3D would be a lot easier if you were to just make Layers a variable. Please!

Re: Two good suggestions
1. The 10 megabyte limit is due to restrictions with Java (for the Java Player) - but in Scratch 2.0 the limit might go up, since it'll be using Flash for the online viewer. 
2. Ooh, that would be cool

Oh! I gotta idea! They let you take pictures for backrounds (check out my pic in "The Disortionator" but not characters! It would be so fun if we could take pictures of ourselves, right on Scratch, to use. And your ideas are also cool.

Re: Two good suggestions
1. Look for ways to cut down - are you using lots of sounds, for one? Try uploading a demo version that has a link to a site like MediaFire.
2. That would be great!

Hmph enjoy your fall - I get a lovely spring... without pans of new leaves.
