Thanks Tom,
That's a lot of help. I'll set it up as you say tomorrow and see if it works with the Ethernet shield.
I was wondering about the pixel lines at the top. There are three different libraries suggested for this shield. gLCD seemed to be best but it left the lines at the top. I guess I overlooked comparing gLCD with the others.
I've just ordered another LCD off of ebay. I hope this works though. It would give me something to do tomorrow. If there is one thing I've learned about dabbling, it's that it's good to have parts lying around everywhere.
Regards
Stu
