Description I decided it was time to come up with a cool, high-quality, self-made 100x100 user icon at long last and this is what I've got so far. He's a work in progress, but I anticipate many versions of him so we might as well start with the most basic model. He blinks, his bubbles float, nothing too fancy.

It's loosely based on what I remember of the "Abomination's" design in "The Only Good Dalek", though my copy is far away and I disagreed with the comic on a couple of levels. (And yes, he also resembles Lars from "Search for the Truth," which belong to Girl-on-the-Moon. But that's what you get from a cloned race. :< )

I might give him some texture (particularly that vent thing they have in the show) and dress up his jar more later. I think it should have feet so he doesn't get dumped over, maybe some blinky doodads. I've been contemplating a scrolling message bar; there are certainly enough frames to support one. He'll definitely get some sweet moves as well. I think I'll start him tapping on the glass and/or waving and see how complicated I'm willing to go. It would be cool to get him really wiggling, but from Leetle Sec I know that's not easy and takes forever. We'll see.

There will definitely be a version of him holding knitting needles, but Ravelry doesn't support moving gifs for avatars, so he probably won't actually knit. Probably...

We're going to have so much fun! 8D /notcreepy

***
I imagine a Dalek would get bored hanging out with me all the time, so anyone is welcome to put him in their sig or what-have-you and show him new places around the internet. Just don't make any changes or claim he's yours. ^_^

I have to second Luna (). He looks just like Lars from . I think your Dalek is really quite adorable too! And if you haven't seen the comic before, you might want to check it out. It's highly amusing.

Girl-on-the-Moon is a a genius and I love "Search for the Truth". Lars is awesome! Not my type, though; I couldn't live with anyone who likes root beer and soap operas. XD

I can't find a picture of the poor Abomination from the comic, but Daleks in glass cylinders can only look so different, you know? ^_^'

Quite alright. I think we're just checking because we like the idea of keeping a Dalek in a jar. Plus, you know, Girl-on-the-Moon is awesomely fantastic
