It looks like your work is getting up to the web site okay.  But then it is getting flagged by enough people so that it is being automatically removed.  Either you have something objectionable in the project or some people are just giving you a hard time. 

The Scratch Team reviews projects that are automatically removed and will restore projects that they feel were removed in error.  I don't know how fast they process them however.

There are other ways to get your projects to your brothers instead of sharing them on the website.  You can attach them to an e-mail and send them that way.  You can copy them off to a USB drive (flash drive) or some other type of removable media and just hand or mail them to other people.  I hope that helps!

After looking through the rest of the forum postings...it looks like there might be a glitch on the website that is flagging almost ALL the projects coming up.  Or maybe a very dedicated group of annoying people...hang in there I'll see if we can get somebody to look at it.

We were experiencing some technical difficulties yesterday.  This issue has been resolved.  Please try and upload your projects again and let us know if you have any further trouble.  Thanks!

Re: Trouble uploading projects?

Hi Walrusi,
When you upload your project uncheck the box that says "compress sounds and images' -- does that work? I got the suggestion from Paddle2See here: http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?id=7651

Re: Trouble uploading projects?

When I upload my project, Red Roller, it works on my 1.3 v of Scratch, but it does not work on the internet. I post it, it works, and then it just stops right before the last part is done loading. Everything is compressed and everything, but it doesn't work!  My project is due tommorrow and I can't access it! HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Trouble uploading projects?

Hi Charbert,

Try unchecking the compression box when you upload--does that work?

You can also try to send to scratch-try@media.mit.edu and we can look at it.

Re: Trouble uploading projects?

The un- compressing did not work. Here is a link to the game and I will send you an e-mail.

Re: Trouble uploading projects?

The lead programmer for Scratch explains:

"This project must have a lot of sound that is maximally compressed. When it gets expanded, it is going over the Java memory limit, which is around 50 MB.

"My recommendation would be to shorten or delete some of the sounds. I don't think you'd need to remove too much sound for the project to fit in memory."

Re: Trouble uploading projects?

Taking away the sound worked, but the script and levels all fail to work. All but the script to move, velocity, and when the ball touches the blue it chages into the letters YOU WIN!!!! please help! :'(

Re: Trouble uploading projects?

Hi I'm Freya! I am having a bit of a problem. Every time I try to view a project on the web, there's always a grey box, and I can't load the project for some reason. Please tell me how I can fix this! Thank you!  wink

Re: Trouble uploading projects?

It sounds like you need Java.
You can try going to

and click the link "Do I have Java?"

Are you using a low-speed connection, like a dial-up line?  Or are you trying to send very large projects, with music or lots of images?  That could explain it.
