We do need a distinction though. For characters created intentionally as "troll" characters, the idea of a recolor is the traditional starting point, and normally only changes with attire, and possibly a complete redesign if the creator decides it is what they feel the character needs. HOWEVER, people who use recolors as the only art on pages not designed from the outset as a "troll character" page are an issue, and the main reason why the only art on the majority of my pages is sprites, because I rarely get the time to scan in my hand-drawn stuff, or trace it with either of my family's two drawing tablets (using either means I'm not on my primary desktop PC, so while it means easy access to Photoshop, it also means a lot more effort transferring and uploading the information here.

Example in point - Toxic the Hedgehog and his brothers. Sure, not the best examples ever, but they started out, and continue to be, recolors, but now with clothing.
