I haven't made too much that I have put out for others, I have made some 
stuff and put it on Gnome-Look.org, most of it for a distro called 
LinuxMint, as that is the distro I have been using for the last year or 
so, you can see it here 
http://www.gnome-look.org/content/mycontent.php?PHPSESSID=98a828c786143b6c75224023a86ac45a 

Some of it I made when I first started making things for Linux, some 
things I thought just looked kind of cool, but I have never seriously 
worked on art for a product, so things I make for Fedora will be much 
cleaner and more polished.
    I'll try and get some stuff I made for myself posted somewhere so 
you can see what I can actually do, as the stuff on Gnome-Look is 
sometimes cartoonish.
    As for GTK themes, as I've said before, my coding skills are not so 
great, so I have not made any GTK themes as of yet, still looking for a 
good tutorial for learning that, but wallpapers, GDM's, web banners, and 
that sort of thing, I can do pretty well, (I think).
