This was posted on your vector submission to #MLP-SVG-Resources , but it was accidentally accepted. So, just to make sure you get this message...
---
Your vector is saved as an Inkscape SVG, which means that the SVG file is filled with unnecessary metadata. Could you re-submit the deviation as a plain SVG?
If you don't know how to do this, open up the SVG in Inkscape, click "File -> Save As..." and then choose Plain SVG instead of Inkscape SVG. Thanks!

Ok, I will do it as soon as I'm at home
Out of curiosity what are the differences between Inkscape and Plain SVGs?

They're pretty much the same, except that the Inkscape SVG contains extra metadata. Some of the things this metadata contains helps Inkscape re-draw the vector as it was when you saved it:
1) The level of zoom the document was at
2) The width and height of the window
3) The position of the drawing
It also has some other possibly personal information:
1) The document name
2) The path where you exported the file as a PNG (and its DPI)
4) The version of Inkscape you're using
All of this is cut out in a plain SVG.

Ok thanks.
Unfortunately I'm having issues with the upload, so I'll upload it as soon as possible
