:D Hi, I'm new

As you may have all ready guessed, I'm new, and I love horses. I was introduced to Scratch a few weeks ago, at an after-school club about computer programming. That club is canceled now, after only 2 sessions, so I'd love some tips  wink

Thanks a billion in advance,
horseLUV101

Look at the Scratch cards here.

Re: :D Hi, I'm new

Hello, I've been on Scratch for... let's see... 2 years? It must be longer than that...

Biggest tip is this:

Don't use this for sprite movement:
<when[  ]key pressed>

Use this instead for smoother movement"
<when green flag clicked>
<forever>
   <if><key[  ]pressed?>
      Move Sprite
   <end>
<end>

Re: :D Hi, I'm new
