I can appreciate that. Besides, I don't think I need the extra complication of learning Bonobo on top of everything else. Ok, so perhaps the next point should be for folks to suggest a good example. Preferably a GNOME 2 application that isn't gargantuan, but shows off correct practice that the GNOME developers would like to see in new or converted G2 projects. 'Correct' being one of those loaded words that inevitably starts arguments ;o)
Traditionally, gnome-hello is a showcase for the technologies you can use. I think it'd also be a VERY good idea to read GNOME HIG (human interface guidelines - the correct URL escapes me at the moment) before you do anything else. As for the small apps... gnome-utils and gnome-media are probably a good starting point.
