ATTINY85 RGB light upgrade Vers. 2 - Christmas wreath

In a previous post I put together an LED RGB circuit to replace the incandescent multicolor unit.  It worked pretty well but was not bright enough.




Here is the entire test circuit, but its only using 5 volts just to test the design.
This version of the circuit uses transistors to drive the leds.  Using the transistors allows the use of high power leds(brighter!).  The circuit works, so the next step is to actually use the high power RGB led and see how bright it will be.  The LED is a 4 pin Super Flux RGB led(R50RGB-F-0160).


This is the schematic for the project.


Here is the code for the ATTiny85:
 ==================================================
//ATtiny85 RGB Color Fader

// change 100 to a lower value for quicker color cycling

const int redPin = 2;
const int grnPin = 1;
const int bluPin = 0;
const int sensor = 3;

void setup()
{
  pinMode(redPin, OUTPUT);   
  pinMode(grnPin, OUTPUT);   
  pinMode(bluPin, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(sensor, INPUT);
}

void loop() {
  if (analogRead(sensor) <= 200)
  {
    redtoyellow();
    yellowtogreen();
    greentocyan();
    cyantoblue();
    bluetomagenta();
    magentatored();
  }
  else if (analogRead(sensor) >= 201)
  {
    digitalWrite(redPin, LOW);
    digitalWrite(grnPin, LOW);
    digitalWrite(bluPin, LOW);
  }
}

void redtoyellow()

  // fade up green

    byte off = 100-on;
    for( byte a=0; a<100; a++ ) {
      digitalWrite(grnPin, HIGH);
      delayMicroseconds(on);
      digitalWrite(grnPin, LOW);
      delayMicroseconds(off);
    }
  }
}

  // fade down red

  digitalWrite(redPin, LOW);

  // fade down green
  for(byte i=1; i<100; i++) {
    byte on  = 100-i;

    for( byte a=0; a<100; a++ ) {
      digitalWrite(grnPin, HIGH);
      delayMicroseconds(on);
      digitalWrite(grnPin, LOW);
      delayMicroseconds(off);
    }
  }
}


void bluetomagenta()
{
