Newbie help

I did used to make electronic kits but a fair few years ago but never got in to any programming, Got soldering irons multimeters etc but to what i am used to this is a step up

I want to be able to make a fish tank controller need the arduino to have an rtc and fancy a colour touch screen will need to set up 3-4 pwm outputs to control the leds via bucks

There is a thread where all the info is available but the blokes used an 3310 nokia shield with joystick so dont know how much more work it will be to alter his code for the colour touch screen

Just getting lcd smartie running via the pc
