Ryan, just for the record I was complementing you in the original comment as to how much "stuff" you managed to get in your yard.  My yard is very empty compared to yours and I have grass all season long.

DrLucas--are those James' (Boscoyo studios) mini RGB trees?   I am going to do those next year and I have been wondering if I should go with "conventional" trees or spiral trees--but definitely going to retire my AC-based mini trees!!!   Thanks.

I have a similar question in regards to imported LOR stuff.   Two years I did my arches in xlights then imported the effects into my LMS files.   ...and the USB hard drive on which I put those files died on me....   So there you go.  Anyway, I need to tweak on some of my imported stuff (want to delete actually)---it seems like when I block out rows & columns of nodes, I can delete some but not others.  Is there a "smarter" way to do this?   Baffled here....  THANKS

Yes. They are great trees. I just have two words of caution, shipping outside of the US is expensive and it is WAY easier to put in new nodes vs the a year or two old nodes. Once I put on some good work gloves I was able to get them in nice and snug. I did one tree as 360 degrees then scaled back to just putting in 55 nodes. I posted a couple of vimeo videos of my show that shows them off a bit. I'm very happy with the quality of them as well as the candy canes I got.

Dr--could you please post the link to your vimeo video?   I want to show my wife; she is concerned that they are too small--I told here they are PLENTY bright.    Showing would work....

thanks.

Here you go....

This is just with 50 lights in the tree too!!

Around the 2min mark in the video you can see the megatree (12 strands of 40 pixel nodes), a spinner (16x15 of the flex strip nodes) so you can see a contrast between different types of elements.

Not the best quality video because I was still learning about auto focus and exposure, i think i have some ideas how to film better video in the future.
