Well they all make me chuckle - but I especially enjoyed the nod to 007, Teapot!

Another classical reference...

A rough translation might be:

'Gimp came - Gimp saw - Gimp conquered'

Ella, Wilber makes a cute bee and I Love your flowers :paint

Your dice animation is cool, I'm guessing that was done in blender.

Skinnyhouse, Nice work, I had no idea Wilber is that old :hehe

Thank you, teapot.
The whole animation was made in Gimp. I first made the dice animation by using the filter 'map to object' and rotating it a bit each time in 36 frames.
Then combined the background with the falling dice. No Blender used.

Wilber's pedigree apparently goes back a long way and just about everywhere,
even to James Bond and into space :hehe

That is so clever Ella - both the idea and the execution - clever, clever - Cleverella.

Not a saying - but I came across this Icelandic version of the famous fairytale by the Brothers Grimm which seems to show eight, rather than seven, miners.
I wondered what name Uncle Walt would have used for him.

Ella, That's impressive and must have taken a lot of patience as I know animations in gimp are time consuming to make. The map object to box takes ages too.

Skinnyhouse :hehe

A take on the song performed by the Fab Four...
John, Paul, George and Wilbo, that is!
