I have to say, at first glance this might feel like spec work, but it really isn't. This isn't any different from what developers and all the other people put in to building and maintaining open-source projects such as this. And especially being a developer myself, I believe that a lot of open-source projects can really use some love when it comes to visual design and UX, even big well known projects like Gimp can use some of that love.
