Have you ever tried to make a pen project and thought, "I wish I could make a save code for this!". Well look no further than this post, because we are currently working on a Scratch project that can save pen drawings, images, and anything else on a stage in the form of a hex color map. This means that it can be saved and shared within Scratch, but you can also paste it into a tool like https://onlinepngtools.com/convert-hex-to-png to download the image directly to your computer.

I have linked an example of what this project can do below. To see and download the image, go to a HEX to PNG converter (like the one linked above), paste the code, and set the image width to 256 (for this example).

Hey guys! It's me, Aadi, again! Out with LemonadeOS V2, this time, only on Websim! (I might try a Scratch port, but idk if it will be made.) I switched over because I don't have as much free time as actual developers, so just try it out! Bye!

A new PythonCat early access version is available for members! This version adds variables, mathematical operations, booleans/comparative statements, error messages (limited), and various bug fixes. The full version is in a near-final stage of development and should be released in the next month!

We updated our early access project PythonCat. You can download the new version from the member file share.

The project is still in BETA and may contain many bugs.

What's new:

• Variables

• Mathematical functions, including +, -, *, /, ^, and %

• Printing from variables

I have been working on a native MacOS app that can easily compress media files called Compressr™. I am still finishing the final release, but I added an early access version to this post and the member file share in case any of my website members wanted to try it out (it should work fine).

MacOS will likely block you from opening the app since it isn't developer tagged. To open the app, follow these steps:

1. Open the app.

2. MacOS will likely refuse to open the app. Go to System Settings > Privacy and Security > Scroll all the way down > Open anyway (you will need to enter your password)

3. Start compressing!

Here are the original documents for my article/essay "Why Schools Shouldn't Ban Cell Phones" (I seriously don't know why Scratch throws a fit about Google Drive links):

We uploaded a new early access version of PythonCat!

Update: The problem where Scratch would refuse to save the project is fixed. Remember to download the new version.
