Mr Grim just needs to put bars to the left and right of the orbs and also make the actual orbs bigger. I failed at this, so we will have to wait.

Yeah, that might work better GRiM!
BTW, how did you get the border?
Oh, i think you put stoke on the orb, quick select it, add new layer, fill in selection, disable stroke on orb, then rub out what you need on the layer with the border :doh:

:p
