I should have studied computer engineering or electrical engineering in school. Then I could have built fun stuff like this and show them off to friend. haha This is all over my head, and I envy those of you that can do this type of thing.

First : Thanks for this nice How-to ! I was interrested in building one of these Digital picture frame for another project but the problemS are : - I'm a complete beginner - Shipping costs are huge at mouser.com and I can't find another good electronic selle (I'm french) - I don't have any kind of programmer and I can't afford one. I can program a 16F64 PIC with my high-school hardware so is that possible with this type of Pic (5+7 I/O). - I can't solder SMC. Sooo... I'd like to know if I could buy one of these for a correct price. Thanks. Montspy. Hi there !

You can get the Nokia knock off from a web shop in Sweden, google it. SparkFun has cheap worldwide shipping so they're probably the best source. @muffinmen – Another screen will work if you change the the code to support it.

Is it possible for someone to link on in firmware coding? Im doing this for my electronics major but i never coded a firmware and it seems daunting. The web server on a business card did help a bit but all it really did was instruct you get the compiler and went on about specs.... Any help will be greatly appreciated. Im adding this to a radio controlled car to turn it into a moving billboard if you wanted to know Nice DIY but i need some help on the coding bit.

Hack-A-Day is one of the few sites I see that has new PIC based projects. A future how to could be building a PIC programmer. I like these how to posts.

I'll be putting one together very soon, and then I'll be trying to put it into a hat, or a belt buckle. I keep you informed of my progress. Hey guys… really really love this.

The average ECE can barely do this in an embedded system's course, much less on their own time. On a separate note, I just bought a seeduino (as recommended by a previous post) and this exact Nokia knockoff! I was going to do exactly this but it looks like I have a very complete guide already. Good job guys! I hope I can do my next project (this thing but with a much bigger screen) before you guys! I just graduated out of computer engineering and I think this is totally cool!
