for the price (LED is only 25 bucks less, and stock always comes around), LCD is probably the best bet. I did LED in my family guy, but it's such a cartoonish pin, AND dots are the only option i run with colorDMDs anyways. smoothing, hi-def, upscaling, and whatever else...for my tastes, I just don't care.

i realized i could use my led display from another pin.  here are some quick photos and a video.  in the video the banding is from my phone and not the display.

hard comparison led vs lcd

Be careful if you put yours in...somehow I got the wires wrong or something -- not even sure what I did wrong as not even my first color DMD install. The directions should be better honestly. I fried my CPU and took down my TWD for three weeks after I put mine in.

Good news is the ColorDMD guy got my board fixed.

I would send picts, but this experienced spooked me and just wasted a ton of my time. Not doing any more color DMDs. So just going with orange on mine.
