Tool to view all images from a single topic... proposition

A bit of history
For the TigSource forums, I created this image view tool: http://daid2.mine.nu/~daid/tigsource_pics/
Which allows you to quickly view all images posted in a single topic. It's great for inspiration, or just finding that one picture you knew exists but lost in a few hundred pages.

So what?
Now, there is also a topic which talks about this tool on the TigSource forums: http://forums.tigsource.com/index.php?topic=23929.0
And someone suggested I would make the same tool, or adapt the tool to also work on the polycount forums.
Which will be some work, but doable.

So where is it?!?
I didn't do it yet.
WHY NOT?
Because it takes time. And my time is limited. And nothing is for free. So I want something for it in return. So, what do I want in return? Something that shouldn't be to hard for the people from this forum. I would like a 3D model in return. Not just any type of 3D model. But a printable 3D model. One my new hobbies is this personal 3D printer I have. Which can produce physical objects from 3D models.
So in return for a pretty nice tool to view images, I would like to see a 3D model that:
  • Is printable, so not to detailed, no very tiny things.
  • Single color (because I can only print in a single color, textures won't do a thing)
  • Is posted, or allowed to be posted on http://thingiverse.com/ so others can print it. (something like a "CC-by-nc-sa" license, or less limiting)
What kind of model would I like to see? No idea. You people are most likely more creative then I am. I figured it would be a pretty nice deal to see your model come to life, and get a nice image view tool in return.

Just to show off a few examples of my prints:

(And then my printing quality went up, after some adjustments)
