Description so this is my work-in-progress trade for

it's for her 'share a rainbow' trade
she already made me a wonderful set of rainbow sweets: [link]
I'm a little behind with the icon but I wasn't satisfied enough and still am so I'm still working on it
I just want to show her some results
I badly want to add some shimmering effect but I have no idea how to get there - any help?

This is so awesome!! I love it and I love the little cloud he looks very busy like he's going somewhere important.

I know that said he'd be putting up a tutorial soon on how he puts the sparkles into his icons.

This is really wonderful I really love it so far.

Aaawww I'm so glad you like it so far

that would be great if would put a tutorial up
do you know him better? how long will it take? 'cause I don't want you to wait for the avatar/icon that long - my mum told me that your letter arrived on tuesday - I can't wait to get it when I get home tomorrow

I'm sort of friends with him. I'm not sure when he'll have it up because he's so busy lol.

It's very cute! Me likes.
What sort of shimmer are you looking for? A glossy look on the rainbow, or something sparkly?

Anytime!

Are you using photoshop? Perhaps a star or sparkle brush in white or very pale blue would work. You could then add a faint glow around it in white or pale yellow, using layer effects.... Um, did I explain that right? Does it sound workable?

that's a cool idea, but I want the sparkle to sparkle (move )
and the pic is 50x50 px so it's hard to use a brush shape - it's too big
