What was the biggest size for an uploaded project in scratch?

I just made a game...and it never seems to load. I was annoyed because I have passed about a week just working on it. However, it is also very large, it has 22 sprites and 214 scripts. So, if its the size, what can I do apart from taking things out? I may screw up the whole game if I take scripts out. I also compressed it before downloading, but not to the maximum, at the maximum its just...very messy.  Here is the link to the game: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/alejandrofalca/362962      It also may be my laptop...since its not that great either...

Thanks for the help, but its not that. I already did it, and it does not work.  Maybe I did it wrong since my laptop is in spanish and I am no great translator.

It just gets erased when I exit Mozilla Firefox, and I need to reset my browser...so what can I do?

You could try clearing your cache with Delete Browsing History > Delete Temporary Internet Files.

Re: What was the biggest size for an uploaded project in scratch?

If that doesn't work, you could always check the file size of the program. I think the Scratch website's maximum allowance is 10 mega bytes, which is possible to reach if you have some large music files and images. If you're using Windows, just go to "my computer" on the start menu, access the folder your file is in, and on the "views" button at the top of the screen select "detail". Then just check under the heading "size". I do not own a Mac, so can anyone tell me if it is any different on it (it might be good for future reference)? I hope I could help!

alejandrofalca is talking about a project that has already been uploaded.

Yeah...the project is there...but it is too large... Can someone try to download it see if it works at least downloading?
