I get the same way myself in regards to Mario & Luigi sprites. Even though I'm sick of seeing them everywhere, I won't mind my friends and I trying the style out for kicks.
Anyway, not be be offensive, but this sprite of the good "kaptain" is not in M&L:SS style. Not only is the palette off, but also the outline is very jaggy. My suggestion is to touch up on some tutorials and have a look at already existing sprites to give you ideas. Who knows? Maybe Sean/Starpower and Neslug might lend a hand if they ever stumble upon this topic.
