Not bad. If you had some original idea, that would be even better.

If you want to learn - there is a lot of tutorials around! Just google it - all kinds of staff. And in photo editing, Gimp matches Photoshop quite on par.

stop using photoshop, you'll be forced to learn and hence.. you will learn.

Pretty good for a first. You might want to work on antialiasing that tux. Getting used to GIMP is very hard if you're coming from photoshop. It took me like 2 weeks of useage before i could comfortably start a poject under GIMP. In fact, after switching to GIMP i was able to get even better at design because of the fact that some of what's not automated in GIMP is automated in photoshop, so i had to learn more. There was also stuff in GIMP that photoshop didn't have automation for.

Pretty nice ! :D Nevertheless you should take more time on Tux Crop because of white lines on the edges. :popcorn:
