I'm not sure this cleared all the confusion as GtkPixbuf
does not exist.  The deprecated widget is called GtkPixmap
(and there's really no reason to use it) (and there's also
GdkPixmap which is a completely different beast).  To sum it
up:

GdkPixbuf -- RGB[A] pixel buffer, used for basic image data
             representation and manipulation.
GdkPixmap -- off-screen drawable, i.e. off-screen relative
             of GdkWindow (both are GdkDrawables).
GtkPixbuf -- does not exist.
GtkPixmap -- deprecated widget, use GtkImage instead.
