any graphic gods out there?
My boss wants me to display status information as if one of three adjacents LEDs had been illuminated. ie each background colour of a status bar is there, just not bright.
I have come up with unlit  red  yellow  green  But it seems to lack brilliance as if the led had been lit. Can anyone advise

Looks quiet good to me.
You could try selecting the unlit LED,s going into Levels and darkening them a bit so the lit one stands out more. Then select the lit one an try the opposit or go to Hue/saturation menu and exagerate the selected colour a bit more. |

Black background and LED them
Kind of like      I would also split them into their lit and unlit components and assemble them as needed. David EDIT - I knocked these up myself rather than stealing from the web, so you have my permission to use if you want - no copyright issues.

 Basically took a new canvas @ 60x20 (same size as Tim had them) Put a circle of each colour in with anti-aliasing on. Removed the white background - which left the ghost corona around each. Added another later with a solid black fill as a background. Created 3 layers @ 20x20 over each circle with a 50% black fill on them and switched them on or off as necessary. Done All using The GIMP on Linux so free David
