Ok. I downloaded a wallpaper and inserted TC Logo and posted on my blog (http://kagashe.blogspot.com/2008/12/tinycorelinux.html).

fun stuff... i wonder if there's a vectorized copy of that logo that one could use to make wallpaper that made it the main feature.

not that i would probably use it.

I hope people know how to add wallpaper on TC but just in case you don't.
Put the image in /opt/.backgrounds directory.
Click on Panel/Backgrounds
Click on ../ to see the image file.
Select and click Install.

One user asked me about the source of original artwork. It is from www.wallpaperlinux.com (http://www.wallpaperlinux.com/v/1024x768/Fresh+Linux+1024x768+Wallpapers+Tux+is+Natural.jpg.html)

One more thing the present capability of setting the background on TC does not support display of .svg format.

I have enlarged the png image of the logo and used it as wallpaper here:

and used the original png image of the logo and tile option here:

.svg is so amazing. until there is an official inkscape extension in tc, i have used the .dsl extension, but if i want to simply view one, i can load it in minefield and use mtpaint or the awesome menu tool to copy it.
