Check out the source to ImagePortfolio, written ( I think ) by the same guy that wrote Movie.app (Tom Flynn??????) I was just looking at it the other day, and there's a thread.subproj that has some neat features. He's got versions of all the standard I/O functions, printf, scanf, etc, that are thread safe, as well as a handy category to Object with methods like - performInMainThread:with:,
I'm not sure what copyright/licensing/whatever he released his code with, but someone who's interested in playing with threads would certainly want to contact him.
Also, there's a nifty little GifImageRep for reading gif format images.
Of course, that code isn't mine to donate, but even if the author doesn't want to donate it, it could serve as a good source of ideas
