ive basically put in one try a day at this, and interchange about 3 IC's possibly thinking that's the problem, but when push comes to shove, i can't make a basic 555 astable circuit powering a LED. Recently all I've been able to get out of it is a glorified circuit to just make the LED light up, no fancy blinking involved.
I've taken all the circuit diagrams off the net (top google results), and have even tried a few off youtube, but no success... It may sound pathetic but some insight into what I am doing wrong would be greatly appreciated. Heres a picture of my most recent disaster on a breadboard-
