so essentially I am going to have a whole bunch of these scripts. Call out to them and have them move across a banner that is 128 leds across.
#include <avr/pgmspace.h> // Needed to store stuff in Flash using PROGMEM
#include "FastLED.h" // Fastled library to control the LEDs
// How many leds are connected?
#define NUM_LEDS 256
// Define the Data Pin
#define DATA_PIN 5 // Connected to the data pin of the first LED strip
// Define the array of leds
CRGB leds[NUM_LEDS];
// Create the array of retro arcade characters and store it in Flash memory
