Preferred Art Styles

[Abronsyth]

Hey guys,

I've been having a hard time settling on a theme and art style for my site. I finally have the theme down after much debate (going with multiple species and splices...more fun than sticking to one species). Now I am perplexed on what to do about the art.

The simple fact of the matter is that pixel art- sprites- are smaller and fit much better into people's signatures, but can be a lot harder to design on. I like larger pets because I can make the markings more intricate, but I just love spriting and am pretty good at it once I get back into the swing of things. Plus pixel items are easier for me, and take a shorter amount of time to complete.

So, which is your preferred style, and why?
