Scratch

On the Mac, you drag the picture from the browser to the desktop or to a folder, where it will end up as a .gif or .jpg file.  You can then use that file as a costume with the "import" button.

There was a thread some time ago about how to set up a web server to provide the same ability to deliver scratch programs as the MIT scratch web site.  I managed to set up a page that works fairly well, following those instructions, but I don't recall which thread it was.

Did someone succeed at installing ScratchR platforn on his own sharing server? If so, could you please let me know which Apache, PHP, MySQL version you used? I tried on several different servers and on every server I got some kind of error

For example, when installed on a server with Apache 2.2.3, PHP 5.2.0, MySQL 5.0.27, I get the following output:

"Notice: Undefined index: controller in C:\Programmi\EasyPHP 2.0b1\www\scratch\cake\dispatcher.php on line 152

So, can you help me? Did you install the server? Which configuration do you use?

When do you think the code will be ready for release, andresmh, because I've enquired several times and recived no response?

Instructors...

You should definitely consider embedding rather than running your own server...

If you are worried about plagerism, narrow down the student's project options. For example, make them only use certain variable names. This way, you are making it much harder for them to simply import others' sprites. Also, if the students manage to swap out the variable names, you at least know that they are gaining a deeper understanding of the Scratch GUI.
On top making plagerism harder, more narrow requirements will simulate the real world problems brought up by lots of people on the same team. And -lastbutnotleast- plagerism is often used when the plagerizer doesn't have a clue what they should create. Choosing these details for them adds excitement to the game-building process... They want to stretch the rules as much as possible, and plagerism won't even come to mind.

yes, at http://resources.scratchr.org/pages/

hope this helps.

This is a message to the Scratch Team. Would someone be so kind to let me to know which configuration is used on the server that hosts the scratch site? I would like to try to install the scratchr server but until now I only experienced a lot of different problems. Would someone let me know which combination of Apache/PHP/MySQL is currently used so that I will succeed in installing it? Thanks a lot in advance!!!!

Done. But I didn't get any answer...

Excellent! Could you please send to me the output of your phpinfo? Or at least which version of Apache, MySQL, PHP you are using on your server.Thanks!

s_federici,

It looks like this is a musunderstanding...
I can't help you, sorry.

The scratchresources website is created me, not by gosox5555

The server at resources.scratchr.org is not "my" server. The Scratch team offered me to place my site on their server(s). I cannot see any PHP, MySQL or any other properties.

I am also not running the ScratchR platform - the (very sluggish) code behind scratchresources is fully written by me - currently even not using any MySQL databases. I am working on this, though. The layout is almost the same, only because i used the background images from this site.
