On the off chance you like the black background, but not the gnu, you
can probably grab some SVG editor (inkscape worked pretty well last time
I tried it) and one of the just-a-penguin SVG files off that page, then
make the background black in your editor, and either export to PNG then
convert to TGA, or export directly to TGA.

Just saying.  :-)

Admittedly, I know nothing about the semantics of the grub config
language, but is the first "terminal_output" necessary?  Looks like
that's being run twice here, I think.  At least one thing below isn't
structured like this either ("if background_image ...").

But that's minor.
