This really is just half-way through a hold-hands style tut, so my only suggestion on this piece is to look around and study pixel styles and spriting techniques, and then finish the tutorial.

A mistake is a mistake.
The same mistake twice is a bad habit.
The same mistake three or more times is a motif.

one tip is to save as .gif or even better, .PNG. Jpegs will add unnecesary colors and generally distort things,

i save as a jpeg only after i got my handy dandy photoshop CS2. When saving as a jpeg in photoshop you can change the quality of the image. so i maxed it out (i probably didnt have to though) and saved it. i just opened my paint and copy the image in my post into paint and its exactly the same not one color is different. but yes i get what you are saying for people who don't have photoshop. ill keep that in mind when i make them when i dont have photoshop with me. Thanks for the heads up!

No form of jpeg is lossless.
your image is no exception.

I've used colour replace to show you
Jpeg
Gif
you effectively made the piece have 226 by turning it into jpeg as oppose to 15.

Well in pixel-art, every pixel counts, and can have a huge impact on the piece. JPEG does whatever it wants with your pixels, whether you up the quality or not, and that = bad. You should have control over each and every pixel in your work.
