hello, I just need some help, in no way is this an actual issue with Breaziles files or anything!

I have wired and coded everything up, but none of the Mandalorian symbols are showing up on my screen. the screen does turn on though. I am using an Itsy-Bitsy M4 Express wired to a 1.14-inch LCD screen from adafruit website. any tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Which version of CircuitPython are you using?

Hey man! If you haven’t already, check the response I wrote to you in the community group chat. You have an older code.pay file. Make sure to download the correct one. To see which version of CircPy you’re using, look in the Boot_Out.txt file. I linked you to the correct downloads along with the .U2F pages. Sometimes, these boards will need a reflash.

Open the boot_out.txt file from the board and it will tell you the version of CircuitPython you have loaded. Here's what is on one of my boards
