Hmm, maybe you could just make models of the numerals and put them in an 
array, and have them be chosen by a macro which takes a number.
Also, something I have never seen anyone do in an image of an LCD 
display is the "floating" appearance of most of them. There is usually 
the LCD elements in a plane within the glass, and a bit of "shadow" on 
the back of the glass. If you did this, it would really add to the 
realism of the display. As it is, they look printed on. A greenish tint 
to the background of the display could help a lot too.
