Ah. Apparently it really only transmits the project thumbnail, not the  
project itself. Too bad.

OTOH this would have been impractical anyway if there are more than a  
handful kids. The teacher would have had to drop the project on each  
badge. And I think Etoys can't even show more than a handful of badges  
at the same time, if there are more people joining the badges go off  
screen.

The Distribute activity would be your best bet I guess. Where is it?
