I wish I had useful information. I'm starting to work on something of a costume for otakon, I just wish I knew more about LED wiring.
Also, I'm notoriously bad at remembering to check things and then replying to them which is why I do generally pigeonhole myself into lurking a set of threads rather than responding. ie. this is my excuse for laziness.
Thanks for the warm welcome and I hope everyone is having a super week.
