nice job all! im new to this sort of things. i wanna ask this:
if i install the firmware of magic latern, and it fails, can i install the firmware 1.1.0 off canon website? or is this a fairy tail?

Yes you can revert back to Canon's firmware, and that would make you DSLR unchanged !
But ML should not fail, if you install it properly.
Hope that helps.

To get magic lantern controls press the erase button ( trash can/waste bin ). The DISP and MENU buttons can be used to change values  :)

http://magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/550D/UserGuide will explain many features (some not yet on the t1i though). The blue is underexposed areas from zebra mode.

From what I understand that might be Zebra at work :) Zebra is a function of Magic Lantern which pops up blue ad red lines when your contrast is too high or too low in specific area of the picture. Do try and turn it off using the ML menu ( pressing the erase button ! )

If it still is there. then perhaps something is not right.. and maybe the devs can help you :)

EDIT: Ah ! pat you were faster than me, here ! :P

Make sure you have q-scale turned off or it will require a larger and faster card.
