Thanks Brad.. so wouldnt a Pickit2 work to programme the epprom?, also I take it you have to programme the 27c512 chip?? and not the 16F628? :) You need to program both. The eeprom holds the graphics whereas the pic holds that info to make the circuit work. You can't use the pickit 2 to program the...

Hi, it is running on an older version of PHPBB with a free theme by olate that I have modified quite a bit to suite the style that I was after.

Hi Brad,, Great site by the way... Just wondering on this 8x85 POV system, how do you save your picture (image) to the eeprom after making it using the HxD?? Do you save it to the microchips eeprom or the 27C512 chip that you use in your project?? Thanks very much :) To save your picture (hex file)...

Just Curious, with the matrix LED sign you have all the LED anodes in a given ROW feeding to one transistor, and all the cathodes in a column feeding to another transistor. Very close, I actually have the Anodes connected in rows then they connect to one of the 8-bit ports of the uC through resisto...

Thanks for the information you gave me. However I don't understand the latch bit. When I send '0' to the enable everything is stored and when I send '1' to the enable it sends the data to the led's. I guess the enable is the (OC) pin on the datasheed Brad send me. So when I send '1' to the OC pin a...

I started to make one of these but never actually finished it.

did you know that the hard drive platter is semi - transparant. I didn't!

Hey there everyone.

I am working on getting a youtube button put in so that you click the button, then paste the youtube link and it will automatically display it in the page.

We'll see how that goes...

How do you turn it off?

I'm afraid that you will need a pic18F

I really need to find an image upload plugin for the forum though

You have a mighty morphin power logo

He actually emailed me his source code:

Code: Select all

I followed the directions - honest!

It's okay

you just need to make sure that it ends with an image extension like .png or .jpg etc...

thats the one that had me interested in building one!

I really like this forum layout also! It took me ages and ages to get it looking like this all those years ago. editing every button and icon to make it look just right. Sounds like you should be living here in Australia - Mate! :D oh by the way - where did you get your cool spinning pic logo from? ...

Sorry, I meant to tell you how I did it in my last email. When you use the Img button to get the image tags, you need to make sure that the code inbetween is actually a direct link to a picture. The link you had in there was a link to a page that contained the picture. Ideally I would like to just h...
