Painted Pixel Pentaxes: 6.4 Kilopixels!

Hi everyone. I've been making a few tiny 80x80 "camera portrait" avatars just for fun, starting with some of the ones I use plus a couple of others:

K10D K20D
K100D
MZ-5N ZX-L
I've just been doing simple pixel-painted ones with quite a limited palette for now, they look nice to me.

What I am asking of you fine folks are suggestions for what camera avatars you'd like me to make next. I'm open to broad suggestions in type, style, etc. I just like making them. Everyone who reads this, just make a suggestion even if someone else has done the same already, as I would like to know which ones are more popular.

Anyone who wants to use one, feel free to copy one and use it.

You do not need to attribute the works if you want to re-use them in any way, but do let me know with a private message if you have "remixed" one.
Please do not use my personal avatar.

So, anyone for a camera with a maximum of 6.4 kilopixels? (80x80)
Shoot!

Nice, thanks.

Just a question regarding the CC license. Your license includes attribution. If one would for example want to include a picture in his/her signature, how could the attribution be done? Also "no derivatives" - what use for these did you have in mind when derivatives are forbidden?

OK, thanks for that, I re-thought the licence. Wasn't sure about it originally anyway.
It's been changed to CC Attrib-Non-Commercial, and I edited the title post with some guidelines.
I'm not trying to over-complicate things, honest! Just use them as you like.

I wouldn't mind seeing one for the LX, 6x7 and 67 II

Perhaps the most coveted Pentax camera at the moment? (no, not the 645D, the K-7 :-)

If only for the real ones...

An often coveted item:


Pentax LX

And of course, we can't leave out:


Pentax K-7

I took the liberty...

I was somewhat surprised that you didn't do the K200D, so I took the liberty of hacking away at your K100D. I hope you don't mind!

One for the students...


K1000

This brings back memories for me.
I think I'll do a medium format body next.
