3pots control 3LEDs

Chose to control the brightness of each LED with a separate potentiometer.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Sample Code was given:
 
/*
* "Coffee-cup" Color Mixer:
* Code for mixing and reporting PWM-mediated color
* Assumes Arduino 0004 or higher, as it uses Serial.begin()-style communication
*
* Control 3 LEDs with 3 potentiometers
* If the LEDs are different colors, and are directed at diffusing surface (stuck in a
*   a Ping-Pong ball, or placed in a paper coffee cup with a cut-out bottom and
*   a white plastic lid), the colors will mix together.
*
* When you mix a color you like, stop adjusting the pots.
* The mix values that create that color will be reported via serial out.
*
* Standard colors for light mixing are Red, Green, and Blue, though you can mix
*   with any three colors; Red + Blue + White would let you mix shades of red,
*   blue, and purple (though no yellow, orange, green, or blue-green.)
*
* Put 220 Ohm resistors in line with pots, to prevent circuit from
*   grounding out when the pots are at zero
