Hello everyone!...
i am starting with custom chars with LCD. i have made a beta version of a thumb up & down animation.
here is the code. the problem is that i get thumbs down properly but not the thumb up. the same code works independently ie, alone the thumbs work but when i join the two codes and make a (thumb up, delay, down, delay) loop only thumb down works and the other is distorted. please help me...
sketch:
#include <LiquidCrystal.h>
// initialize the library with the numbers of the interface pins
LiquidCrystal lcd(12, 11, 5, 4, 3, 2);
// up
