Just stay inside the lines and you'll be fine.
"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." -- Theodore Roosevelt (1918)
"The danger to political dissent is acute where the Government attempts to act under so vague a concept as the power to protect "domestic security." Given the difficulty of defining the domestic security interest, the danger of abuse in acting to protect that interest becomes apparent. --U.S. Supreme Court decision (407 U.S. 297 (1972)

Haha. My hair is actually short now.
It's ironic that you called me that because a friend of mine is nicknamed that.

I'm not going to color it for you, since that defeats the purpose of you learning how to do it yourself... But some general advice is to have each color on its own layer. Just about everything you add should be its own layer. Make liberal use of masks to section off areas to paint without worrying about painting within the lines... An example would be to use a path and trace the lineart into sections so that you could make a selection, mask that layer, and paint only that specific spot without fear of overlapping onto another area.
The style itself is very basic and easy to master, so you shouldn't have much troubles once you have the basics I just described down. The cell shading should be easy, too, using selections (or simply painting sharp edged black areas and multiplying the layer over the area to be shaded) to burn the shading into the layer. Personally, I would use layers to add shading, as it's easier to fix mistakes than it is otherwise.

Thanks, that was actually helpful.

Pretty much what AK said.
Set the image you linked to multiply, and color on layers under it. Use the magic wand to quickly select large areas that should be colored and use fill, and then go through with a smaller brush and make the lines look nice. Use dodge and burn for shading... or gradients. If the guy who made it used vectors, ask for the source file and color that sucker in like 5 minutes

Aircraftkiller I'm still working on it just showing you my progress before I call it a night.
EDIT: I realized what you are talking about. I missed a section of hair coloring that I didn't erase from the cloths.
