Scratch companies like Syn Inc, Prosper Entertainment, Codo Games (website soon to come) and many other ones who have website are suffering because of the green flag bar and the 'Learn More About This Project' parts of an embedded project. It's not that we don't like scratch's amazing setup just that we want our games to look professional and the scratchFrame doesn't help with that.
I think there should be an 'embed professional' option. It would embed it with the green flag bar removed and the 'Learn More About This Project' text gone too
Scratch Suggestion:

Post you thoughts...

Scratch isn't supposed to be professional.
You want professional? Try Flash.
If you don't like the bar, make your own flash project.
Also, the "learn more about this project" is a link to the real project.
If someone else saw like scratch brawl, they might think you made it, until they click the link. if the link was not there, you could easily take credit for it.
BTW, if you knew HTML, part of this suggestion would not be here.
Every HTMLer (or even other people too) know that you can edit the HTML and add/delete whatever you want.

If you want I might be able to take the bar out of the java player.

I know... I know. LOL But I can't do flash, would never put someone else's work onto my website and I am not a HTMLer!

If you don't want the "learn more", take it out of the HTML. Instead of
<applet id='ProjectApplet' style='display:block' code='ScratchApplet' codebase='http://scratch.mit.edu/static/misc' archive='ScratchApplet.jar' height='387' width='482'><param name='project' value='...'></applet> <a href='...'>Learn more about this project</a>
Take this:
<applet id='ProjectApplet' style='display:block' code='ScratchApplet' codebase='http://scratch.mit.edu/static/misc' archive='ScratchApplet.jar' height='387' width='482'><param name='project' value='...'></applet>
Hope that helped at least a little bit.

What?
What he means is that you would take the code out of the applet(if it is open source?), decompile it, and using the Java SDK, take out the top bar.
I also think that if you use iframes in HTML you may be able to resize the window so it doesn't have anything around it.

This is what I have so far.
I'm sure with a bit more digging I can remove the bar. I can also change the loading bar colour and the background. Custom text might be possible later.
So if anyone wants a custom java player I might be able to do it.

But how do you stop/start the project now?

All you do is delete the text, hopefully you know where the delete button is.
Anyways, you're not the only one in the Scratch community!!!!!!

Who wants to waste their time doing that?
What if there's two projects being played at one time, one that is on level 5 out of 10 and is still being played, the other wants to be restarted? What if one needs to see that other project and will not continue the first game?

You can just program a flag click in the project. If you don't like it don't use it.

true, but what about other ones?

You could broadcast scratch-startClicked. That clicks the green flag for you.
<broadcast[ scratch-startClicked ]and wait c>
You can do it with any broadcst block that you want to!

I'm not going through the trouble to add that to each project I want to add.
I'm sticking with the original one. What's the problem with the original one?
