Add Blizzlike Purgeable/Stealable glow/border as an option in Icon auras!

Hello, to preface I’ve been using this incredible addon for years & it’s effects on me have exceeded just exclusively in-game, I’ve learned and took away a lot of knowledge regarding custom coding due to this addon so thank you..
I’m a pvper first and just the other day had the idea of adding the Blizzlike border or glow (although I think it’s a border) to icon auras for purgeable/stealable buffs.
I attempted to do this myself within SharedMedia by adding the Interface\TargetingFrame\UI-TargetingFrame-Stealable file in both blp and tga format to no avail as the scaling/sizing was hilariously wrong on the free online converter I used.
I use a mod for Plater that causes buffs above my nameplates to have this glow/border I’m looking to add to my WA’s so I believe it’s definitely possible to implement.
I think it would be a worthwhile addition to Weakauras as both pvpers and pvers could make icon WA’s for important buffs to purge or spellsteal & it having that blizzlike look that you’d see on target/focus frame purgeable buffs would look great and improve player reaction in my opinion.
This is applied on TargetBuffFrameTemplate as an overlay texture with alpha mode "add", that would require a new type of sub element

I see. Thank you for the information!
Is all of that still required just for simply adding it as a border or glow option for icons? You did say it’s an overlay texture though, so my suggestion of it being a border or glow may not be so simple/possible in that case.
