The projects are good, but if you are working with arduino for the first time, one of the libraries is not included on the link to download it, MaxMatrix also when you go to the marquee sketch the alphabet in lower case is incorrect all the letters that you type are out of place, simply he did not reviewed the sketch. You need some skills to analyze what is going on, and be sure that you have the right set of libraries.
