Until now, we've been viewing our projects in the Scratch editor with the blocks palette and script areas visible. Let's check out Scratch's full screen mode:
I'm intentionally keeping the slideshow simple, but that doesn't mean you have to! A timed presentation with captions would make a nice upgrade to this script. Maybe add in some graphic effects each time the next background loads. A cartoon presenter who narrates each photo with a voice bubble could also be a fun variation.
As we worked through our slideshow, did you make the comparison to Microsoft PowerPoint or OpenOffice.org Presentation? Imagine how easily you could build an animated presentation to display last quarter's sales figures or present interactive poetry to your class.
