Several times I have tried to submit my art and I get the same thing over and over no matter what I do. So I thought maybe this time I'd show my art on the 'WIP' section and get some feed back.

Here it is:


I don't know, maybe it doesn't have anything really intriguing about it. Could I have some help on making this a better piece?

I don't think its bad but you seem to have technical issues with the art.
My siggy has a checker link so you can verify you file there.

It shows 35 colors, which seeing the art suggest you used a tool that adds colors, has pressure, or is some NPA tool?

I only used 'Paint', nothing else. I zoomed in and out to see what it would look like at 100% and 800%, that's how I did the eyes, the thought bubble, and Benders head. The reason why it's .jpg is because I was constantly saving and tweaking it day by day and probably saved it as that file type. So are the colors good or do they need more work?

With bare eyes I can count 16 colors, so some of that 35 colors are off with some reason. also I think you could've sum this up with 8 colors.

Here it is:
