VB game help

I'm trying to write a basic target shooting game, and need a couple of pointers on how to write the code for a target, with concentric circles of different colours from bullseye outwards.I'm probably being thick after too much xmas indulgence, but I can't think how to do this ensuring that all the rings aren't overwritten with the colour of the largest (outermost) circle.
Thanks.

Could you draw this as a series of nested ellipses (concentric circles) starting with the outer one rather than the bullseye? Or perhaps even display the whole thing from a pre-rendered bitmap?

Do that.

What version of VB are you using?

It's VB.net, but I'm a real beginner - you're right about starting from the outside though, I should have thought of that !
