We've had these discussions. Go check out Paper Mario. Those are vector based sprites. And they are on the spriters resource.
But lets get started on Morton.
First things first: Don't use JPEG, that file format is meant for photographs and not for digital art. Use PNG instead.
The colors are quite badly chosen. Also, your Outlines are all of the same color and in many cases brighter than or really close to the fill. That should not be. Take a look at Bowser - the different parts have matching outlines.
Your lines are really jaggy/jiggly in several places. As if you were using a pen/line tool - you really should go for bezier curves when you create vector art. Take the control over your lines. Make them smooth and round, don't let them wiggle. Your work here doesn't have the feel a vector graphic should have.
Those thin lines you're using - for the hair and on the belly and the nostril - don't seem to fit PM style. I don't think thy used such noticably thinner lines.
