Arduino Circuit Prototyping

Hi,

Looking around at a few sites today and this one came up.

https://www.circuito.io/

It allows you to prototype circuits using the arduino and even give you sample code to use after you followed the instructions to wire up your real arduino.

Site Redsign and Logo

Hi All, After a couple of years of the default theme for PHPBB I finally got around to changing the theme. I hope you like the new clean look. I also loaded one of my submissions for a logo design in the header to brand our space. I'm hoping that maybe we could come up with some logo ideas and share...
