Responding to: ???'s previous message
7 row pins + 6 column pins = 13 pins, multipiled by 10 chars = 13*10 = 130 pins, using this led formation (it describes 5*5 LED matrix though, I think it's enough to understand):

The way I thought doing it is lighting each LED by certain order fast enough (P.O.V.) to display the message I need, and loop through the LEDs to keep that message on.

Have I got it all wrong?
