Default My frames - help!

I've been working on frames I'd like to see in my own UI, modeling them in ProEngineer (It's like trying to make a piece of jewelry with a sledgehammer and a shovel sometimes, but it works)

But try as I might I am just not interested enough to learn the UI builder. Since the wife left, solo on the 3 kids means I'm on limited concentration time.

So, I'm hoping to find a site to post my frames, and then let you guys use them if you want to. I need to know a few things

0.5 . SHould I even Bother? Would they get used, if they look good?

1. What size do you want the pieces? I have been making corners, channels to go between them, bar frames etc

2. WHat is the best site to use to host these? I can afford 20 bucks a month, but that's about it...

3. Do you want a "cut" look, intense filligree, or other. I've got all 3. (The most recent set of corners and pieces I am working on uses trucker mud-flap girls). The software I use to model is very restrictive, in that no non-real world pieces can be made, and free-form modeling is very obtuse. Most of the models that I make for the frames look pretty 2 dimensional (they are 3D, just not deep), because that's how they are used. The tortured angel I'm working on is not 2d at all, but I'd still like to make a set of interface pieces based on her when she's done in 2009...

4. Should I host both "colored or textured" versions as well as blank white ones (or whatever color you guys might think best for modifying it)? THat way you can change the textures easily to suit your own needs...

That's about it... get back to me when you have a chance...
