HAVE ANY INFORMATION? LET ME KNOW AND YOU WILL BE CREDITED! CREDITS AND LINKS AT THE BOTTOM SCREENSHOTS INSIDE THE PROJECT ----- A project titled "Working Mirrow!" was uploaded to Scratch on May 18, 2026 by @iplaywownotsus. This project was added to the Scratch Design Studio (SDS) at the time, "Through the Looking Glass." It's a very simple project, consisting of a Scratch Cat sprite that moves with the WASD keys. A second Scratch Cat mirrors it's position. But what makes this project special isn't even in the project itself. Upon loading the project, users find that the entire website has changed looks. The text is now pixelated and green, and everything else is black. This is caused by something called "CSS." CSS is one of the many tools programmers use to make their websites look how they want them to look. The programmer can specify the color, size, and position of part of a website, as well as many more attributes. So, to change the look of the website, @iplaywownotsus used their project to overwrite the default Scratch CSS, which tells the website to display differently than normal. But how did they do this? If you've ever downloaded a costume from Scratch, you might notice it has the file type "SVG." An SVG is a type of image file. They're used by Scratch because each part of the image can be easily manipulated. In fact, if you've ever wondered why one of the costume editing modes is called "Vector," it's because SVG stands for Scalable Vector Graphics. So to simplify it, @iplaywownotsus injected CSS code into the SVG files using an external program, and then imported them back into their project. This is why "Working Mirrow!" looks the way it does. And don't worry, it isn't harmful to your device. @fortyonegames has a great tutorial on how to do this yourself if you're interested! https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1311303013/ Thanks for reading! UPDATE: It seems that as of June 1st, the project no longer has any CSS-editing sprites. also uploaded an updated version of the project, also with no CSS. They also unfortunately fixed the typo in the title on the new project. ----- CREDITS for the original project for the tutorial for everything else ----- LINKS Working Mirrow!
