It's been a while since I visited last time. :P

So I'v started coloring my work. I usualy perfer B&W but I think this is starting to make them a lot more better. I'm curently working on another at the moment. PS: all coloring was done in GIMP

Try keeping the pencil layer on top set to Multiply mode, and color on a layer underneath. Until you want to attempt something more refined, it's a good method to color without losing the line art.
If you don't know how layers work, I suggest you find a tutorial ASAP. I can't help you much since I use Photoshop and not the GIMP, but you can be sure that layers are the best thing ever when coloring with a computer. :-)
