    Decided to Frame, Hang and Light up my 2 very sweet Translites that I've been hanging on too. Turned out even better than I thought!

    Looks pretty neat, but you can't tell what the LED strips are doing and what's being lit by the sunlight from the window (if anything).

    I need this explained to me. Is it relevant that they're hanging on the window? Otherwise where does the power come from?

    Edit: Ah looks like an AC adapter next to the window runs behind the blinds.

    Would like to see how you have it lit from the back if you could post a pic.

    They have a clear back for posters so it lets the light through the Translite during the day!
