Here is how to create this colorbar:



Here are the 6 original pics I started with!
1. http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b144/johnnysslave/ewan%20colorbar/pictures/ewan1.jpg
2. http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b144/johnnysslave/ewan%20colorbar/pictures/ewan67.jpg

6. http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b144/johnnysslave/ewan%20colorbar/pictures/Ewan20McGregger-Closer01.jpg

Next I resized the pics to 100x100, the standard for user icons!
1.
2.
3.

4.
5.
6.

Next I colored each base to put into the colorbar, on the program I use, I changed them to grey scale, by going to edit!
i.e.:


I use Neopaint, may be a little different on other programs, then I went to color balance and changed the colors:

i.e.:
1.
2.
3.

4.
5.
6.

To make these into a regular colorbar, you would just make a new image 600x100, then paste each one into it, but to make the above colorbar, next you have to create a 110x110 image

then paste the image into it like this:

Next put a border out 3 pixels from the original picture:


And then one on the outer part of the picture:


Then you have to choose the glitters to use, here are the six I used:







Next you have to separate each glitter fill and save individually:
red1:


red2:


red3:


Do this with each color until you have all 6!

Next you want to paste the glitter in between the two outside borders and save them, here I did it with the red ones:
ewanred1:


ewanred2:


ewanred3:

Next to build the colorbar, take each already saved images from above, create a new image 660x110, this will be the base for the colorbar and start by adding ewanred1 first:


then adding ewanorange1:


next ewanyellow1:


and so on (examples below):






after adding the last pic I saved it as colorbar1, then do this adding ewanred2, ewanorange2, etc., saving as colorbar2
Then ewanred3, ewanorange3, etc. and saving as colorbar3

as shown here:
colorbar2:


colorbar3:


then finally put them into a animation program, set the speed to the speed of the glitters, on my program they are set at 150. Then you are done!
Here is the finished product:
