Need Help Mimicking Digital RGB LED Display
I need to simulate an LED display and I’m having trouble figuring out how to do a photographic version of it. I’ve already done one that just displays one color text.
The display has 8mm round LED’s that are spaced 16mm to center apart (or basically 8 mm in between). I would just do a clipping mask in FreeHand or Illustrator, but it takes way to much memory in Illustrator and FreeHand refuses to do it at all. So it looks like I’ll have to use Photoshop. I can do basic photo editing in Photoshop, but something like this is beyond my knowledge. The size is 160 LED’s horizontally and 64 LED’s vertically.
Any ideas or tips on how to make uniformly spaced circles for a clipping mask in Photoshop? Or a better way to mimic this type of display? Any help is greatly appreciated. I have to put a link to the image on Flickr of the sign with the LED lettering because I can’t attach a picture here. http://www.flickr.com/photos/21359827@N08/3470392039/

The display model is E16
