i can't import my sprites.

Hi, i'm new here. I made sprites with the paint option, and couldn't import them to another project.  I suppose thad's because they are scrach files. the import only shows gif files. how do i save sprites as gif?

Hi Tamzi, To save sprite costumes as an image file, in the costume editor, Right-click on the costume (or Option + click on the Mac). Then choose "Export."

Does that work for you?

Thants natalie, but no!!! it doesn't work. it saves the sprite as a scrach file, and not as a gif, and when i try to import it, i don't see it in the place where i saved it

Re: i can't import my sprites.

Hi Tamzi, the costume editor is the second tab of the *middle* pane (where you've got the list of costumes for each sprite). You're probably right clicking on the sprite in your project's sprite library (the area below the stage in the botton right corner of the window)..... Hope that helps.....

Re: i can't import my sprites.

Thanks Jens, i think i got it. when i right click on acostume and export it, it becomes a gif file. when i click the export spritr button at the top of the screen, it becomes a scrach file, and can't be imported for some reason.
