Wow, i was trying to draw a star on the top, but i dont know how to draw it, it is hard really  

Hmm, I can see why because the tree on a whole is small, so I dont think there are enough pixels to make it proportionate. Have you tried perhaps a glowing circle instead on top?

Cool. How i make a Glowing thing? , i use paint.net  

I dont use Paint.net, but try and find a tool that lets you change the opacity of the colour. Id suggest starting off the middle point with full opacity (100) then do the outer rings and for each time you do another ring you decrease the opacity by 20? Experiment with it and see what you like. Heres something I did to help show you what I mean.

 

check my gif dagger it glows. Ty  

Your welcome.  

It looks like you've free drawn it. Pixel art is meant to be pixel by pixel, more or less. That being said though, it is a nice start

Maybe not make a thread for every graphic you make though? Keep them all in one.
