Netduino Project (LEDs, RGB LEDs, Potstemtiometers, Light sensor)

This is my second project with the Netduino. The Netduino is like a Arduino but it is compatible with the .NET Micro Framework. This project is written in C# with Visual Studio and the .NET Micro Framework. In this Netduino project I will show you LEDs, Potentiometers (Pots), Light Sensor, and an RGB LED.

I got a new Arduino shield and used it on the netduino. It has:
4 red LDS
1 RGB LED
2 Potentiometers
2 Buttons
Ambient light sensor
Infrared detector
infrared LED

@Websteria Not as far as I can tell. I contacted them and they told me it [gadget shield] had full compatibility (After the analog bug in the netduino was fixed and the 3V3 to Aref fix was applied) So no, there is no problem with that. If you are looking to buy it I suggest you wait a little for them to supply some C# code. If you have worked with arduinos and you can handle it, you should be fine.

The potentiometers (according to the docs on GadgetShield site) say they output 0-5V, and the netduino can only accept 0-3.3v in the analog in. Have you had problems as a result?

@Websteria

I am not sure what you are asking but... The pots on this shield are good. They do seem to slightly change the brightness of the leds even when it isn't meant to. I think it has to do with them changing the resistance of the circuit as a whole.

You might want to mention something about the AREF 3.3... Did the Pots (which go from 0-5) cause any problems?
