Hi!  Tux Paint's 'stamps' are released in a separate download.
If all you have on Linux is a handful of cartoon Tux penguins, then you
simply need to install the "tuxpaint-stamps" package.

If you installed Tux Paint from source, you'll just want to grab
"tuxpaint-stamps-####.tar.gz" from the 'Source' download page:

  http://www.newbreedsoftware.com/tuxpaint/download/source/

Then open the .tar.gz archive ("tar -xzf tuxpaint-stamps-####.tar.gz" on
the command-line, for example), then go inside the directory/folder it
created ("tuxpaint-stamps-####/"), and then, as 'root' superuser, run:
"make install".  Restart Tux Paint, and voila!

If you installed from a package (on Debian via 'apt', on RedHat via 'yum'
or an RPM package, etc.), just install the corresponding "tuxpaint-stamps"
package.


FYI, I've separated the stamps from the core package because some people
want to give Tux Paint a test-drive but might NOT want to download 6-10MB.
(The main program is only 2-3MB.)  Also, eventually, the Stamps collection
will be split up into smaller sub-packages, with various themes.

Let us know if you need more assistance!
