Too common shape. Try to add something special to it.
Also, add some white for some colder parts of the flames. Center is the hottest, the further away, the lighter the colours get.
There's a tut that shows how to create fire in GIMP, try to use more creative smudging.

If you are trying to create fire, keep in mind that fire also composes of lots of white and a reversed scale color, meaning that you must use a little bit of inverse color in order to make it stand out (this case accepts bright yellow and orange, but not too much, near white areas you should add). Also, the whole flame just blends to the background, and you really need something to make it stand out. And what's with the borders? Use https://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/tools-560/button-manager-v1-8-2-a-116280/, please. I am sorry to say, but this looks like some random scribbles and abusive usage of smudge tool, so my rating is Lacking, 2/5.

It stands out more from the background now, but it's still undefined and blurry.
