Just a thought... What about the people that can afford the more expensive tiers that opt for registering for all three? The people with limited income can be screwed. Not in a the fun way either. Or maybe it is the fun way....hmm

Does anybody know how to sync led's to music? All the resources I have found have been for a limited number of lights....like for computers and speakers. We are looking to encapsulate our MV in led's and are wondering how to do it on a large scale.

we made most of ours from thrift store buys and old crap from the closet. Its more fun making something unique. If you lack the patience, have your camp...or start one yourselves; a clothing swap/party. Or just have a party and see whose clothes you end up home in and worry about playa wear later.
