OpenGL fun!

I like to select things. I want to select items, players, and be able to affect them with effects.
I think a wireframe ingame looks a little out of place, and a green disc is not so hot on items. Another issue with the green disc is that it isnt very visible from a distance on various terrains.
So, without ever touching OpenGL or Gl anything, I went hunting. Feeling brave I was.
An hour and a half later, I had this. It looks great from a long ways off. Now I won't lose sight of that pesky Kork!
