As for the text part, there's a tool right in the paint editor:

It's the one that's blue in the picture.

The importing problem is way more open ended, though. What happens? Like, does it give you an error message? Do they just not show up?


I'm taking a break from Scratch until 2.0 comes out. Any messages sent between then and now probably won't be read - sorry.

Is it an unorthodox firewall or something? They may have bugs. I suggest you stick to the default firewall that comes with your OS, and maybe modify it from WELL-KNOWN websites' instructions. And follow the instructions exactly.


Error:Signature could not load. Please wait for an indefinite amount of time, until you realize you're gullible and go off to look for another potentially interesting signature to stare at.
