that isnt the picture i want to use i will make a controller when i get my new leds so i can have a controller actually put together then put the blinking light like you just did on that black controller shell.

Look at some commercial sites that sell controllers and look at their pics... most are very nice and professional looking. The more professional you make yourself look... the better the odds are of making more sales.

yes i no what you mean, but i cant use a stock picture from the websites because i am installing my own L.E.D's in the controller and i want the lights to blink to show the customer how it will work.

Just sayin'.
