I can't believe it's only 4 colors!

Nice animation!  Frame-by-frame is much better than the way they did it in Gen 5 lol

The design is very cute too, more colorful than you'd expect IMO, but still could pass as a starter

I liked the hair texture in the original, but the new one has really neat shading! I like the glossy look of the hair. There's an edge under her chin though  (this piece is old so sorry for mentioning it if you have already noticed)

Oooh, excellent, nice designs  the preview icon is neat, too!

CUUUUUTE!!  this palette is perfect for Porygon!

Sorry for reporting this here, but I don't use Discord so I can't do it there...

This art is stolen and the uploader appears to be a spambot. The original artist commented on it. I've seen other such spambot submissions get removed from the queue, but it looks like this one got approved by accident.

Yes, I'm surprised to see this one got approved. It's one of those spambots that register an account the same day they upload a stolen piece or just a thumbnail of a bigger image, with an ad and shady links in the description.

At least I'm glad to know who the original artist is now, cuz I thought it was pretty good when I saw it.

Adorable!!!

Cute 

Love that you used purple for the flame!

Cute tiny avatar 

was fun

You have a pretty interesting art style  you did the best you could with the palette (in both pieces), so it looks natural as if you had chosen the palette yourself

Wow, nice  I know nothing about Cookie Clicker so I had no idea there was so much epic stuff going on in that game hahaha

Woooowww damn, this is amazing!

Nice little avatar!

"Pixel art is so cool..." I totally understand what you mean 

Congratulations! It's a lovely piece indeed

I LOVE it, it's really got that early computer game vibe, very nostalgic

Cute

I'm very sorry if I sounded harsh, your piece is pretty cool though. Including the subtle gradients, imo.

Yeah, I figured the extra colors were a result of either converting a high-res drawing into pixel art, or blending modes/layer properties (as you said, it was the latter). I'm also a relatively new user here, so I can only give my opinion and not actually, directly decide what stays in the gallery and what doesn't, but I wanted to tell you that this kind of technique is generally frowned upon here because, while it can result in a cool effect, it creates a lot of unpredictable, unintended colors, and in "traditional" pixel art, pixel-level control is crucial, so this can get your art flagged as needing revision or denied entry altogether. In the guidelines that you're shown whenever you upload new art, it mentions "having too many similar / indistinguishable colors that serve no purpose", and this kind of effect produces just that (basically, a lot of colors that don't belong in your palette despite being so similar to the colors that do). I believe gradients with dithering are still allowed as long as they only use colors in your palette, without layer effects. (Mods and long-time users, feel free to correct me.)

As for how to update your piece, I think you can still upload a new version like usual by editing this submission, there's no need to re-submit it as a new piece (I think).

Oooh, nice, I like what you did with the palette

Real nice!

9774 colors??!! Dude... I think something might've gone wrong during the export process, cuz I see artifacts on the tent, especially. Unless that's intentional?

Aside from that, I love the atmosphere and I was especially impressed by the smoke haha

Amazing designs

Very very cute  love the hair and the palette is very pleasant
