Taking some inspiration from the examples, here is a collection of functions that (as of right now) provide the following:

showPxl - Plain and simple, takes an image array (I call them Pixols) and shows it for a set amount of time
notifyPopupPxl - A "toast notification"
notifyScrollPxl - A "scrolling notification" or vertical marquee
scanChangePxl - A "scanline" or per-pixel transition animation between two Pixols
randChangePxl - A transition animation between two Pixols that randomly changes pixels from the first image to the new image

Nice!

Now based on the current master branch.

This adds a struct that can be used to globally interact with the LEDs. Currently it defines an active state and custom RGB values.

randChangePxl has been fixed and given a massive efficiency boost.

This entire example can be loaded into your pixo-pixel to see most of the visual aspects.

A very cool addition to the PIXOPixel and it's helped me a lot in how the pixels can be mapped etc. Just a question - where do you generate the RGB array from an image, from? Have been looking online and can't find a good resource to create the array? There's a lot that create the HEX codes, but can't find the {R,G,B} style? thanks.

SORRY, i'm a dumbass!! Just remembered Sean said about a python script that converts images to the array... and there it is in the root of the repo, woops! Great PR for the project though, may be worth nudging @hodginsa / @IdleHandsProject to pull these into the master..?
