Debian background

Well, i got kinda bored and decided to check out what skills I could achieve with GIMP, of which i was unfamiliar with. This is how it accidentally turned out. I used a red tube gradient and used spiral(cw) gradient and accidentally made a zoomed Debian logo!
Here's the photo:

Well, this is indeed cool.
But I would suggest an improvement.
The debian spiral is actually counter clockwise(ccw) spiral.

Just flip horizontal to get it right.

Thanks ^^
You know, you could do it easily with GIMP. I was just playing around with it and it came up like this. I could probably do something better. Thanks for the kudos and 'That's Amazing!' posts!

Here's a Debian banner. God, it's so easy to make the debian logo on Gimp, and manipulate it for my own use.
Speaking of manipulation, good god, Debian is NOT MINE. This is just something I just do when I get bored. mmmmmKay? Good. Now you will be baked, and then there will be cake. [(c) Valve's Portal]...

The picture is nice, but the text ruins it.
