Sketch often fails because fuzzy matching is done on very simple method (note:
not programmer so I could misunderstood the code). There are taken pixels with
brightest values of R, G and B, their relative position is calculated and that
is fingerprint. Such "simple" method gives astonishingly  good results with
normal pictures but fails with sketches where you have large areas of the same
colour. 
Note: astonishingly good doesn't mean perfect. I wonder if adding eg. darkest
points would improve results without sacrificing too much performance.
