This is just fun exercise. Can you decode the hidden message in this image?

To find out how, click below..

SHOW SPOILER
1) Run Filters/Distorts/Polar Coordinates with only "Map From Top" Selected
2) Run Filters/Distorts/Polar Coordinates 3 times with only "To Polar" Selected


What are some other ways of creating and decoding hidden messages in GIMP?

Whoa! Totally cool, Tux! Love it. Does this mean I no longer need my secret decoder ring?

Tux, I decoded your figure and I got the correct result. I would like to know how you did to encode the word. I tried, but I could not.
