You demand that people give you real project and but you are failing to provide basic info on your skills and level of the knowledge.

There is no point to fight over this. Look there are many topics to work on (similar discussion going on here - http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread150380.html). So have look around, absorb all available/presented ideas, you may try to adjust them to your needs or to your personal liking. Then when you thing you may have something interesting let us know and we will try to shape it and suggest some resources

PS: I do not want you to get your hopes high, but it is unlike event you may get your hands on real project. This is more likely to happen to somebody studying for higher degree or backed up by some company/organization with their investment in the person study (Friend of me did health care image processing application for company she is working with. Work successfully submitted for degree marking and they are currently undergoing testing in the company she works for.)

you're trying to succeed as a developer, first saying to possible clients: my knowledge is humble

so, you're not really self-assured you will be able to complete the task, and if so, it might not be very efficiënt programming.
and, if a client, who ordered some software from you, after months waiting, finally gets it and receives some crappy code, you're answer would be the one above???

@Peter Budo: I was not commenting his asking for project ideas, I was more thinking about his offer to code other peoples projects (for free) while he admits his knowledge is rather shaky
