On my DeviantArt, the image on the top has almost seven times more likes (74) than the image below (11). It's probably the Aspergers in me, but I completely fail to understand why this is so.

A lot of people will sadly prefer memes than actual art. Also, the former involves 2 fandoms while the latter only involves one.

Plus, the latter i more suggestive than the former, so that might also be contributing to that.

Hiya, @Sarge Sixteenbit! Since you are not asking for critiques and advice on your artwork, your question is better suited as a status update or blog. Therefore, this topic has been locked. Likewise, you can showcase your art in Visual Fanart and Non-Pony Artwork (for non MLP-related artwork). Thanks, and keep up the good work! Looking forward to more of your drawings.
