I need a GOOD pic of Daria's profile! Both sides would be great but her right side is prefered.I don't have a "frame grabber" or whatever the name is to get it off tv and I would like a digital pic,so please don't tell me to draw it from tv! :^)

Can anyone point me to a website that has a pic that could help me (i didn't find one anywhere) or please pretty please could they grab me one from tv? P.S.-I need her mouth to be closed,in a relaxed manner-not talking,not smiling.A close-up would be great.

I hope I'm not asking too much out of anyone,reply privatly if you have a pic you can send me directly!

Thank you very much [address] is really a problem for me,hope I can solve it with you guys!

I can't help-- I can observe, that Daria animators seem to *not* want to show her in profile. The few times I've seen a profile, it was quick, in passing, and not very recognizable. animators usually work out a character design very carefully, to make it

She's shown in profile in the Daria Hunter, also a couple of other times, and her face looks flat like it's been squashed or something. It's definitely not her best side.

She hasn't got much of a nose, has she? I think that's why her profile looks sort of weird.

The problem with Daria's profile is that it's so changeable. This is one area where the animators/artists seem to have dropped the ball. There's little consistency between episodes or even within episodes. In one shot her face in profile might be quite rounded, ie. her forehead, cheeks, and chin lie in an arc. In other episodes her forehead, cheeks, and chin lie in more nearly in a straight line. I'm not sure which shot you could pick and definitely say that it was the real Daria profile. Some of the variation might be attributed to Daria's expression though.

I think the defining picture is the two-shot of Daria and Quinn in "Quinn the Brain" when Mr. O'Neil told Daria he had someone he wanted her to meet. The two girls look at each other, shocked, and Mr. O'Neil asks if they know each other. Once the shock of recognition leaves their faces you can see that their two profiles are quite similar except that Quinn has a turned-up nose. Since I think one purpose of this shot was to compare the two girls I believe this view of Daria's profile can be considered somewhat "official." I think her profile looks more attractive in this shot. It's one I like better.

I happen to have video captures of "Quinn the Brain" and "Ill" on my computer hogging space 'til I figure out what to do with them. I've extracted a couple of shots and am sending them. Hope they help.
