Maybe color it more like the original spikes, the contrast is nicer ;) Also, is it possible to have variations in shade or bands of color as the disk gets fuller? This might solve the perspective problem. So, you could start off with the current shade of green at 1/4 full, transitioning to a lighter color of green at half full, moving to amber at 3/4 and red approaching full. Just some random thoughts, keep up the good work! Cheers, Will
