Haha, Kane, well I never said it would be cheap... but that's why I'd like to try just a 2'x2' sign type thing... although even that is going to be around $500... haha well I was just throwing it out there. I imagine one day we'll all be covering our houses in these types of things. Like house sized billboards... haha

Here are a few examples - I had to experiment quite a bit to get the font, size, color and scroll speed right. Using too bright colors actually blinded and made it unreadable... Distance is between 40 and 50m
