I think he should update it come Christmas time though... I can totally envision a snowman on either side of her. She looks right at the one. She looks left at the other. The she calls down the fire to melt them! 
That would be funneh!!! You crack me up, Caemgen!!

Biggest Troll on the forums? I'll give you a hint:
Before you do anything else with coloring technique, I'd suggest finding a way to get smooth layering of delicate line art over color flats. As is, the rough edges of the aliased pixels are really detracting from the rest of the picture. I personally don't use GIMP so I'm not sure what technique it would involve there, but I'm sure there is one.
In Photoshop, I'd grab the line art layer and set it above my color flats, using a multiply mode to let the black lines hover while the white spaces are converted to alpha transparency. That would let me do whatever I wanted behind the line layer and not effect the quality of the original lines themselves.
Color works should add to a picture, rather than take away and at the moment the manipulation of the line art is definitely distracting. Until you can smoothly lay the color under the lines without sacrificing line quality, you'll be stuck at "paint bucket fill" level works.
Edit: It's also nice to see Halley's Comet still getting some play. I haven't seen her in quite a while.

Is there a particular version of GIMP you're using? Perhaps some GoogleFu can bring up some tutorials on how to get a multiply effect on the line art. I haven't paid attention to it in a long while, last when I checked, GIMP didn't support layers at all.
