I finally found time to reply to this.  Thanks for the offer, Jacob.
Any kind of artwork that can be used as stamp objects within Tux Paint, and
which would be relevant to young kids, either for fun, or in a school
environment, would be welcome.

You can peruse the current set of stamps here:

  http://tuxpaint.cvs.sourceforge.net/tuxpaint/tuxpaint-stamps/stamps/

And as you can see, the photographic stamps are stored as PNG images with
alpha transparency, and the backgrounds have been removed.  This lets you
do fun stuff like this insanity I just looked at today :)

Thanks again!
