I think tracing over reference pictures is okay, doesn't show much effort though.

I have made another entry because this is such a great topic and its good for more practise, I hope that is okay.
It's Simba from "The Lion King", 10 colours.

2x

Wasn't this sorted some time ago? Tracing pics is okay when you include the reference pic with your work.

its NEMO!!!

hope this is ok...

Sorry.
I didn't think it was rubbish, but IMO you sort of missed the point of a Sprite Jam. And you didn't include the reference.
The sprite didn't look original, and there have been people who cheated, so I hinted at that possibility. If I am wrong, again: sorry.

15 colors

What exactly are the rules on reference pictures?
On this picture I didn't "copy," "paint over," or "trace" anything, but I tried to recreate the character.

If you used an image to directly trace or reference from it, you should include the reference image. Of course, it's up to one's own judgment. If you look at pics as reference and draw based on them, it's not serious. But when you have a specific image that you trace to make your 'own' image, it should be clear that you need to show the original pic as well as your 'version' of it. I guess the old rule applies: It doesn't count, if you don't get caught
