just some small ones playing around. I have minimixed the spotting by clustering, but waiting for a few more LEDs to come in to try it on a little bigger area. I am still playing with the older x-re for my white and royal blues so that might be why I am not having as much problem as you seem to be having as the newer whites are a lot brighter and will be harder to blend IMO.
