FWIW. Dennis, your first post showing the LEDs in parallel with their own current limiting resistor is fine.
Will work till the cows come home.
Use normal 1/4 Watt resistors in each leg.
Your 6 Volt @ 800mA reg supply will do nicely.
Regards, Laurie..
ps. If you find it necessary to dim them, just wire a 20 Kohm to 50 Kohm pot in the positive lead, (eg; in series), with the LEDs.
