Happy #WorldPenguinDay! 🐧🌎
Did you know #Tux, the #Linux mascot penguin, was designed by programmer Larry Ewing in 1996 as a submission to a contest to create the Linux logo? Although his entry did not win, the artwork was adopted by the Linux community as the iconic brand character. The name “Tux” comes from “Torvalds’ UniX” and refers to the black-and-white tuxedo appearance of penguins.
