* I agree with hell gate. If you look outside and see lightnings, you will know the difference between your icon and the true lightnings =)
* The lightning needs a better color - something white
* Need a better ground - you can use your water ground, but you need a better view of lightnings in the water.
* If you use the water, you should add maybe a second lightning in the background and don't leave the background black, maybe add a light gray or something like that.

Rating: No Rating
- Why: Because the icon looks like a first try of "How create an icon". I also don't rate it, because I want see some changes at the icon. Else if you leave this icon as it is, I also will rate it in some days!

Note: Everything I said is nothing against the icon, yourself or your work. It's only a personal comment, how I think about this icon.

ok, to make things looks like light or anything that is making light, u need to use White, to make lightning, u need to do a rly white stripe with a colored glow, and then, u can use the smudge to do tendrils on the lightning. (i think its smudge but im not sure cuz my gimp isnt in english (but the icon of it is a little hand in gimp)).
