Looking for LCD custom character creator? Look no more, now you can create any character with simple click of your mouse. You can create any character pixel by pixel, degree symbol, ohm symbol, arrow even smiley face is possible. Here are some sample I’ve tried..
It very simple to use, all you need to do is visit Bruno Maia page, click the pixel and upload the sketch on your arduino projects. Have fun!
p/s: watch out for this line (LiquidCrystal lcd(12, 11, 5, 4, 3, 2);), make sure your lcd pin is correct. Read this link for hint.

This is basic for your arduino projects, input switch read from digital input. When ever switch pressed, LED will turn on.
Parts List;
1) 1x Arduino
2) 1x 5mm red LED
3) 1x 10kΩ resistor
4) 1x Switch
5) Jumper wire
Instruction;
1) Connect cathode lead of LED (shorter lead) to ground pin and anode lead of LED (longer lead) to pin 13.
2) Add switch to breadboard, connect one of the switch lead to 5V pin.
3) Add 10kΩ resistor as in diagram and connect another switch lead to digital pin 2.
4) Connect GND to 10kΩ resistor.
