I think everything is prertty good, and I don't understand why they don't get accepted.

Well mostly because the ever changing and undefinable standards based largely on opinion, have deemed your work to be of poor quality.

A handfull of moderators. I have to agree with them on this one however.
They used to be pretty slack but mostly they only let more detailed works in.

I like the last one alot, so I dont understand that one.
Maybe because the bandanna is unshaded, besides that it's good, IMO.

Your color choices here could really use improvement. You use exclusively oversaturated colors (too bright) and the black outlines are pretty harsh and ugly against such bright colors. The shapes of the things are also basic, but as Pixel_Outlaw showed, some better shading could more than make up for the simplistic design. On the smiley you also have two instances of duplicate colors, a light yellow you use two very close shades of and a dark yellow that has an extremely similar color. You should consolidate the pairs so you don't have so many wasted colors. The bandana's lack of shading is also very strange-looking in comparison to the rest of the piece, and it makes it look very unfinished.

As monkaye 'o Doom said, I think the Camoflouge could have some diffrent colors. maybe, if they contrast enough, also remove the black outline aroun the camo patterns on the scarf? not sure how that would look though.
