First off draw your handle when you are satisfied then you can start this tut

Id recommend having a black background

1) Pick your colour/class (red,blue,green,purple, ect)

2) Make a long rectangle of that colour (maybe round the end)

3) highlight your layer and make a duplicate actually make 4+ duplicates.

4) Line them all up.

5) Click top layer then go up to Filters >>> Blurs>>> Gaussian Blur
Keyboard shortcut for fireworks hit (dont hold) alt (let go) i (let go) b (let go) g (let go) Alt, I, B, G

6) set the setting to similar thing to this
first layer set to 1
second layer set to 2
3rd layer set to 3
fourth layer set to 8
Keep original at bottom layer and dont edit

 

Nice!

I disagree its pretty good for making it in a few seconds

 

That's just an excuse for how shit the tutorial is.
