Yes. With homemade PCBs, though, there isn't an option to apply a solder resist. When you're soldering such small components (they're 0603s), the solder naturally flows along the traces, and doesn't stay on the pads.
I'll admit, I did spread the solder along the tracks in a few places (the ground/power traces and the input/output signal traces), but that was because I would be soldering wire directly to them later on.
Dude, what the HELL were you
Dude, what the HELL were you thinking when you soldered this??? You know that electricity can travel through copper don't you???
