"lightening" a color

[Rick Harrison]

Have you considered just changing the border color
of the object?  If you made the border wider, and then
changed the color a little that might be the best way
to indicate to the user that they are using a different
selection.  It would certainly be a lot easier than
changing the color of the entire beast.

Hope that helps!
