This looks like fun! Where do I begin?
Want to know more about animated Christmas light displays? Think this is a hobby that might interest you? Some great places to get started are the forums dedicated to and frequented by Christmas lights enthusiasts with all levels of experience.
Here’s just a few of the many forums where you can start: Planet Christmas and Constantly Christmas
The larger vendors of light control hardware and software also have active user forums. Here’s three of them: Light-O-Rama, D-Light and Animated Lighting. Their main websites are here, here and here. Blink Midwinter uses Light-O-Rama.
If you’re adventurous, mechanically and electrically inclined, do-it-yourself may be right for you. Here’s some places to get started: Do It Yourself Christmas and Computer Christmas.
No matter which route you take, the best advice I can offer is start planning for the next season early, say, December 26th at the latest. Also, hit the after Christmas sales for lights, join a couple of forums where you can learn from other “addicts”, go at the pace you’re comfortable with, and most of all have fun!
Vendors We Recommend and Odds-n-Ends
