Brilliant!Ī lot of icons rely on shading for detail, a luxury we don't have with our 16 colour palette. Using Google image search, and narrowing options to 32x32 size, was a quick and easy way of finding material to start with.Įven easier was the ability to drag the image from FireFox and drop it in Paint.NET, which would create a new layer for it. so no need for a grid background anymore and slightly less of this > It took a bit of struggling with strained eyes staring at the grid for a while before I found the 'pixel grid' option in View menu. Pretty cool for simple stuff, like what we're undertaking.įirstly a 32x32 pixel grid was created as my base file, then use a layer or two for drawing in.

My editor of choice is Paint.NET as it's a bit like MSPaint but with layers and a few extra features. This'll be split in to two long-winded posts, I'm a bit of a n00b so will detail what I went through for other n00bs to learn from I'm working on a bunch right now and will hopefully have them finished and tested by the weekend - will endeavour to post any/everything I createĪlright, after a few weeks of procrastination and other setbacks, I commited myself to get the BitVision working by the weekend. It'd be great to have the image and palette posted as both screenshots and code. a thread to share and discuss BitVision images. Of course if you are creative you can draw your own. Colour images can be hit & miss, some are ok, some don't work at all. It is even worth just looking for B&W images, as the image converter works off brightness, so these tend to turn out better in Bitvision. Images need to be in gif or jpg, but can be easily converted in Paint.

If anyone missed it the page for creating new images is here -įor anyone wanting to mod their BitVision: a good way to find images is use google search, select images, then in the left side column, under 'Any size' select 'exactly' and input 32 pxl by 32 px, then search away. The other side of the board just has the battery holder and a battery (not pictured).AndrewF wrote:Maybe we can get an image thread going for people to share code. Of course here is the picture of the board, though it doesn't do much good because it's not super sharp. What could be wrong? Could a small solder bridge that I can't see cause this, or does this seem more like I applied too much heat and killed the chip? I have a fresh CR2032 battery, and the ISP cable is connected in the right orientation. It either complains it was unable to read the AVR, or that there was a mismatch.

I am using AVRDude on my Mac with an AVR Isp mkII USB programmer.

I'm now up to the part where I have to program the QFP32 package ATMega168, and this is where things aren't working so well. Multimeter (resistance, continuity, etc.) also seems to agree with the schematic. I don't see any shorts, and nothing smokes when applying power. I've managed to solder it up, in what seems to be a successful manner. I built the Circuit Skills kit, and now moved on to something that blinks: the Blinken Button (beginner version, of course).

I got into the crazy world of hand SMD soldering.
