SOFTWARE & TOOLS: (Scratch) Kitties and Wabbits

May 29th, 2007 by Susan


So now Blue Gradient Kitty has a change of costume to lavendar, and he’s got a little buddy, a grey bunny rabbit that looks suspiciously like what we all drew in our copybooks in grade school as our version of Bugs Bunny. 

The drawing module is very similar to Windows Paint–which I never did very well in, never quite managing the straight lines or curves I tried to maneuver with the mouse.  Thankfully, the same approach I used in Paint was available here: zoom in, erase and redraw the pixels. 

The screen setup of Scratch is thoughtfully plotted out very much like the Adobe flash programs so that a transition to the "big kids" software should be made with ease. 

In the meantime, I’ve got Kitty walking and playing the Chinese Cymbals and a cowbell.  Wabbit is just standing there for now, but I’ve got great plans for him…
