Adoptables are apart of the furry fandom. A huge portion of the furry fandom is having your own character. The problem is, a lot of people have a hard time coming up with their own character that they like. So adoptable designs and reference sheets became popular, so that people could just pick a design that they can manipulate however they want, and then do all the world/character building themselves.

Also, there are people that are just good at designing characters that appeal find amazing, and its nice to own a cool looking design. The one in my post sold for a nice amount of money. http://www.furaffinity.net/view/23392546/

If you want to sell art at your current drawing level, you need to get better at rendering. That means how you color, how you outline, your image composition, how you use light, the colors you choose, etc. Because that is what a lot of people are looking for.

Look through this person's gallery: http://www.furaffinity.net/gallery/akitamonster/
Notice how the characters they draw are nothing spectacular, but they can render a beautiful image.

I think you'll also notice yourself having a lot more fun with your art if you start focusing more on your rendering.
