Since now I'm jealous of what Dave at the disco bar managed to pull off, I think I'm going to have to get off my ass and stop playing xbox 360.

I think I can build out the floor by this weekend if I hustle and flow all this week. I won't have the entire living floor raised but the disco floor area should be. I think I can get the wiring run and what not too. Doubt I'll be able to do anything Friday and Saturday on it. I have to bribe my buddy Dave over at Various rumblings from a Dink to help me get some 2x4's and some plywood for the rest of the floor to make it drunk proof. I also need some USB hubs. Must not be out done by Wisconsin.

For those that are new here, let me recap what my project is. I started this project way back in I believe July. I made a few expensive mistakes here and there but I think it is all coming together now. I am running a floor that is 7 boards total (448 RGB LED's total ) with 2 miles worth of hand rolled wiring (mistake). I have 3/8" polycarbonate for the actual floor. Polycarbonate is a part of bulletproof glass (aka cow proof). My end floor will be 8 feet wide by 14 feet and 6 inch tiles.

The software I run I custom wrote based off the orginal C code from MIT. It runs off .Net 2.0 and soon to have some DirectX 9.0c added in. It can handle floor configurations of any size and uses and XML configuration file to specify the needed aspects. It can play animated gifs and jpegs on top of the ddf images. I extended out the ddf format a bit to be able to handle custom ddf sizes. Parts of the code could be better but that is why I have the source out there.
