Cirr talked up the Luminosity layer so much I had to try it out myself. I can see how it'd be useful in making my shiny magical stuff look shinier and more magical.

Indeed.
Also, consider copying your lighting layer, then applying a gaussian blur, then trying different layer blend modes and blend percentages. It can create a neat blurry/dreamy outline if done right.
Here's an example, using a spiral blur instead of gaussian, and with another layer of the original on top which has been unsharp-masked in order to return some of the fine detail:

(And of course it's not Roz - there aren't a pair of tits in sight.)

Actuaaaaally, I just used IrfanView (free image viewer, and totally awesome) to apply the spiral blur, then copied it into SAI and used SAI's layer tools to do the blending. All in all, there were 3 layers - normal, blurred, and normal+sharpen to add back some details. You could probably use The Gimp if you wanted to do a gaussian blur.
It sucks that you have to go between SAI and other things, but SAI only really supports drawing/painting. Back in the day, my program of choice was Paint Shop Pro, but that's ancient history now. :)
