Drag+Dropping a file for a game background

How do i drag and drop a file into background block to set the background be that file? I kinda need this for a computer i am building.

You can’t do this. If you have an image file like a .png or .jpg you can convert it into MakeCode using an online tool.

You cant do this in makecode, you have to convert it on an external tool

I should also mention that MakeCode still only has 15 colors so don’t expect too much detail until the developers decide to add a lot more.

This is the tool you need

If file:/// links are not blocked on your computer

Take the link and download it to your computer. Navigate to the file, double-click on it.

If file:/// links are blocked on your computer

Go to an HTML runner like w3schools. Paste the HTML in from the GitHub link.

If you tried everything else and can't make anything work
I didn't think to look up HTML runners on google

Do that

I thought of everything and it still didn't work

That’s a bit strange, sometimes you can still find one on google. If you really can’t, just use a non-school computer. If you don’t have one of those, then you’re fried. Sorry.

Good luck! This took a while to write.
