Has anyone successfully animated a Compact Disc? I know it sounds simple, but I am a perfectionist and want the radial rainbow colors on the disc as it spins, not just a greyed disk spinning. I have tried making the rainbo patterns as a texture map but the colors always seem to get washed out and lack the inviting character of a real CD. Reflection maps seem even more useless on the flat face of the CD. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks Andrew
