Aspiring Artist's Dabbling in Electronics: Another item of note for those artists who are dabbling in electronics.
If you purchase a mixed package of resistor's thinking you will get the one's you want. The resistor's within that package are color coded. They are not all, 45 ohm to 65 ohm (or something to that effect), resistors.
So in other words you can't do what I did; just pull any of them out of the package and use it and think that everything will work out just fine.
Both images were taken from Wikipedia - Electronic Color Code, if you would like more information then is in this post, it can also be found on the Wiki. I didn't read it too in depth because a great deal of it went over my head--part of the problem for any aspiring artist dabbling in electronics--well, if you lack a technical and math side to your brain anyway. *disappears*
