Some weeks ago, I already started a Wiki-page for collecting shapes for
Scribus:

http://wiki.scribus.net/index.php/Shapes_for_Scribus

Regarding the clipart: I think, it would be wonderful to have the
Scribus logo integrated into Scribus - perhaps as bitmap and as
vectographik. So, when people are building mockups and they have nothing
else at their hands, they'll use the Scribus logo. With the result, that
everybody will know that this document was created with Scribus :-)

Best,

Tom
