Figure A-7: Viewing the contents of another Scratcher’s project

If you want to use parts of this project (sprites, scripts, costumes, back-
drops, or sound files) in one of your own applications, just drag those parts
onto your backpack. To delete an item from your backpack, right-click it
and select Delete from the pop-up menu.
The contents of your backpack are saved on a Scratch server, so you
won’t lose them when you log off. To use an item from your backpack, just
drag it from the backpack onto your project.

creating Your own Project

There are many ways to start programming in Scratch. You can create a
clean project, remix a project that has been shared on Scratch’s website,
or open an old project and modify it. We’ll look at each of these options.

Starting a New Project
To start a brand-new project, click the Create link in the navigation bar
to open Scratch’s Project Editor, shown in Figure A-8.
