Well, StumbleUpon is all about photos, so lets see some screenshots.
Personally, what I love about using Linux is how easy it is to customize your computer. I have been writing these gtkrc themes that work well with Firefox/Thunderbird and everything else. They are written for the engines-xfce theme engine. I also use a bit of Firefox userChrome.css to fix the tab-bar so the gradient matches.
The Emerald window theme is also my own original theme using the tru glass theme engine.
These are from my original theme called: Xfce-rusty_milk_new

As for website design, there are some nice examples at oswd.org [oswd.org]
About a year ago, I learned how to make my own simple web page from downloading a few examples from oswd.org [oswd.org] and then re-writing them to fit what I wanted my site to look like. It's sort of the same way that I taught myself how to write a theme for Xfce. I just studied a theme and the way it was written, and then modified the easy things like the colors, and then tried somethings in different ways that weren't in any other theme I had seen. And they worked out perfectly.
Anyway, Linux desktop threads are always cool to look at, and StumbleUpon being a social networking site based upon photos, seemed to need a Desktop theme thread.
And I might as well show off my more recent three:
...and if you liked my other theme, I have updated it:
and the link to download is here: xfce-look.org/content/show.php/Xfce-milk [xfce-look.org/content/show.php/Xfce-milk]
...and Mr.Showoff's newest theme:
