Thank you! :D

It's the same background, colourised blue.

Your new one is good as well: being bigger, Tux is slightly menacing, which is amusing. But your first one lacks that tang of menace, which makes it probably fit for a bigger audience....

GIMP is a great application once you get to know it a little.

Thanks again! Already applied to workspace 5. You've now done one third of my present backgrounds. :D (And the Tux/Windows theme has half!)

lol I would never have guessed. It's just a Windows background off the www with a few bits cut out, layered over tux. About 3 minutes work. Anyway, I'm glad you like it.

I love it, thank you for the idea. Although I'm partial to the original Tux. If anyone else wants it, here's my interpretation https://imgur.com/gallery/VzuE5IW
