Thanks for adding me to your watch list! So, are you THE penguin-pete that's been around the GIMP scene for a long time?

Am I that famous? Yes, I'm the same guy that runs penguinpetes.com, the webcomic Doomed to Obscurity, and various other shenanigans.

Thank you for hosting those scripts, by the way! I was over at Gimptalk browsing tutorials and saw the plastic-wrap one and wanted it, but the original site is down, Googling lead to dead ends on Tripod pages and so on. I was thankful when I found yours.

Also known as the creator of the webcomic Doomed to Obscurity. And other stuff.

In my eyes you're that famous! I know I've seen you around since I started playing with GIMP.

Glad to be of assistance. I have a few more scripts floating around that I haven't posted yet; been lazy. Let me know if you have any ideas for scripts. I'm certainly not an expert, but I do love scripting and a challenge.

Cheers!
