Well, wouldn't remove it break the circuit that it's connected to? I guess maybe I didn't notice or look close enough, but it didn't seem like it was running parallel?
Also, off topic a bit, but my original plan was to use the test boards (I bought something like 15 of them originally!) in this xmas present idea (see the finished version/board here: viewtopic.php?f=15&t=7381), but like you I ended up deciding that to build 8 of the circuits I would need it was just easier to design a PCB. So now I will justbuild random silly little things with these for fun/learnings
.
Thanks again!

Just desolder (or crunch) it, which would leave its series resistor leg floating (which is not a problem). The LED serves no other purpose other to show that the 3V3 supply is present.
What I plan to do is keep my first yellow board (with all its LEDs) as a test bed and then use either these or other configurations for actual projects once the code is proven to work.
