Items marked with a ∗ can also be found at the Sh33p's Fluff Message Board, which is host to these new and updated works:

Fan art at The Paperpusher's Message Board:
- Christ Oliver found Enigma Wing's self-portrait with Daria, also available in her Deviant Art gallery.
- Greybird posted a link to various Daria avatars at LiveJournal.
- S.C. completed his Daria animated short, “A Little Knowledge,” offering it in a small You Tube format, a 640 by 360 Quick Time movie, and for those with fast connections and big monitors, a 1280 by 720 Quick Time movie. While many people have noted how much like the series this animation looks—per Kara Wild, even Glenn Eichler thinks it looks like an episode—its aspect ratio is 16:9 while the original series is standard television 4:3.
- S.C. also provides a drawing of Jennifer as a surfer, honoring a request from Angelboy.
Fan art: a frame from “A Little Knowledge,” cropped to 4:3 proportions. Click on the image for a comparison with the original 16:9 image:
Most of the short uses the entire width of the frame; this is from the only section that could be cropped.
