I'm not sure where the idea came from but as i was messing with gimp today i got an idea to try and make a speed odometer. I think it turned out ok. Its kinda refreshing to get away from landscapes for a while.

Could use and extra beveled ring on the outside. Even so nice work. ;)

Very nice RD. The colors are cool but as Wallace mentioned. An outside bevel would give it some depth.

These look really very nice. I immediately got this idea to make some fun type meter, like " sense "-o meter, " respect"-o-meter .. things like that. Might be tricky, as then it's needed to have a symbol for " sense " or " respect " haha. Anyway, very well done :)
