I think the basic problem is that you need to use an absorbing media as well
as an emmitting one.

The emmitting media shows up nicely against a dark background, but is washed
out by a coloured one (try looking at a glow-in-the-dark decal in broad
daylight).

By adding an absorbing media that is the opposite colour to your emitting
media you should get the effect you're after.

Hope this helps.
