Don,

It still changes the color of the baby Penguin and world to gray. If you
undo adding the penguin - go to Edit Code - then back to Setup Scene it
will fix the issue. Our desktops are:

iMac 21.5, Late 2011
3.1 GHz Intel Core i3 processors
4 GB 1333 MHz DDR3 Memory
AMD Radeon HD 6750m 256MB Graphics

Hope this helps,

Cliff Wampler
