First of all, I wouldn't say its rubbish at all.
Second, I'm not too good at computer art, or have knowledge of anime, but here are things that might help you: I'm sorry if you already know them.

-Layers...if you use the layers, you can often save alot of work, and it might help you with the background issue as well.
-Sometimes using a thicker "pen" in diameter can help smooth the lines out a little, just in the fact that they can reach more angled, or partial pixels.

Anyway, I rather like the pose she has, and it looks like you do a good job coloring as well...keep trying, because you seem skilled.

I'm not a big anime fan, but I think this is a pretty good drawing. I don't use Shi-painter but what LisaAnne said sounds right to make it better. Keep at it.

I'd say that you should make her arms skinnier (maybe by a third?) to match her body, and pull in the angle of her back (I think it would look about right if maybe you pulled the back in to where that green lining ends (right below 'her' left arm). Other than that, her face looks pretty well done. Good luck if you choose to revise this :).
