The music police wont let it play.

So how do you plan to incorporate the floods in your display? Do you sequence you lights to music?

So how do you plan to control the individual colors?

No blow molds for me either. Love the "clean" look as well. Neatly wrapped trees, net lights, roof lines, mini mega trees, mini trees and arches. I've never bought a set of "multi" lights, it's all one solid color string of lights. I can make a multi string come on if I want to by having all of the green, red, white and blue on a tree come on, but I personally dont like the look. I even jumped up 32 more channels this year to try and keep that look going on the new house we moved into. Will definitely be diving into RGB and Pixel based lighting very soon.

You can also go to Richard Holdmans behind the scenes video and he shows you how he deals with his and the winds, etc. Hancock Christmas Lights has taken many ideas from Richard it appears.

Couple of thoughts on your initial post, after viewing your video. You have plenty of opportunity to improve on what you have. I am not bashing your display, but things in everyone's display, except those elite few, could always be cleanded up. If you are done with the display, then you are done. Instead of packing your stuff away, you can sell it. As you noted, there are plenty of people out there who are getting into what is becoming a year round hobby.

Isn't this a hobby? As everyone is certainly entitled to their opinion, I wouldn't think that there would need to be limits on creativity. If you enjoy the display, enjoy the work, can build upon it each year, then why not either carry on the tradition, or get involved? Does it really matter that there are more animated displays? There are more and more static displays each year in my area. It sounds as if some people want to be the only "show" in town

How has your Mega Tree held up with this latest storm?

Hi Cliff Thanks for the info. Yes, pics would be great. Visual learner here.

Was wondering if anyone has cut rope lighting? If so how would you go about it? Pics and how to if possible Thanks

Thanks eeek!

Mainly LED's

Where did all of the green lights go?

Does anyone know how many mini lights the Holiday Coro 46 inch x 46 inch singing pumpkin uses?
