Edit: I got more screenshot sample to show you. This should give you some idea.
Edit 2: Here's some tip on how to be creative. The first thing you want to want to do is to disassemble the room so you left with blank (it doesn't need to be completely blank.) Second, reassemble the room with random idea. That's it! You did something creative, at least for one example.
Ha ha, Kambeck, I think that's Acheron's discreet way of saying that he doesn't appreciate another hack full of spikes.
Anyway, once you get a basic grasp of how SMILE works, try redesigning rooms, rather than just adding things in, particularly spikes. Spikes are absolutely fine in reasonable amounts, but not in large quantities, unless that's the idea of the room, such as to encourage you to grapple over them.

... How many hacks exactly have we seen that took that room and just added spikes in the floor? So far, that's part of what I did, but at least I'm coming back and changing things, and I added a complex secret passage, too. C'mon! On rooms that size, just erase the whole thing and make it from scratch. I've seen that room done that exact way in almost every half-hack I've ever played.
Some of you guys should not be so quick with judging him. I remember getting quite a large group of people mad at me for pointing out errors like this.
Now, Kambeck I suggest you mess around in SMILE making stuff till you get your own style. Now my other suggestion is that you should not show of every thing you make. Take some time on you and try figure out self what you want the player to play or what sort of hack you want to design. It took me a good one and a half year to figure out what I wanted to design.
So don't rush it, take your time!
(That is not to say your slow with hacking like me!)

Okay, I guess it's alright, but I've seen better. Overusing something in one room isn't the best way to go. Fix it at once, or else Acheron/Scroogeron will come to town again.
