Hey,

There are some programs listed here: 
http://www.mono-project.com/Winforms_Samples.

There are some screenshots on the screenshots page here:
http://www.mono-project.com/Screenshots.

You can download the mono VMWare image which has about 20 small samples 
here:
http://www.mono-project.com/Downloads.

And we have a nifty tool to help you determine if mono will support you 
application or not, called MoMA.  For details, you can check out our 
guide to porting winforms applications here:
