Glow image any color?

I was just wondering if anyone knows how to glow an image using any color? For example, since Yoshi is a green dinosaur, and you wanted to glow him with green, how would you do that?

- New layer;

- Draw a small elliptical shape in any colour (EDIT: smaller than your target object);

- Gaussian Blur to whatever takes your fancy (dependant on size of shape)*;

- Lower layer opacity if need be.

* usually a rather high blurring is needed so expand the shape outwards enough to emulate a glow rather than obvious blurred shape.

That's how I've always done it.

@Bob - OMG. Just like that! How did you do that? Did you do use green line/curve tool and just go around the image and then blurred it? Step by step tutorial would be nice :]
