Attached is the new layout, I am required to do 2 LED's in series due to lack of resistors, and I might need lower value resistors. I had to do the Blue LED's in parallel pairs to get them to work at the appropriate brightness in series, they barely glowed. They must have a higher resistance/consumption than the other LEDS. The transistors seem to be working as PWM switches, now the code is sort of working, but not yet as responsive as I would like. It is posted below.
