AVR 7-segment clock

This is my first small project I made with an AVR-controller.
The clocks heartbeat is a jitterfree, clock accurate frequency divider. Unfortunatly I've choosen a resonator as clock source, so that the clock runs to fast. After ajusting the divider value the error of about 1 second a day was acceptable.
The circuit can be viewed in every electronic book. Some 7-segments and LED's arranged as a matrix in rows and colums and a multiplex routine written in assembler. The two buttons are for setting the time.

I have some C-source code for the clock, too: clockc.tar.gz
And sometimes I get questions about the part values of the clock. Here's a schematic with values in it: avrclock.pdf


Have you build a clock based on that page? Let me know, I'd like to see a picture.
