Some of the textures, which we can extract with the help of the XWE editor, bear his name in the title:

• BRAIN1.Keith's brain.bmp: the texture for the Brains in Sheol, apparently as an impish allusion to Keith
• TREEDOR1.one of horrid keith's things.bmp: the ornate tree door in the basement of Charles Randall's Vicarage
• SILVKEY2.Keith's silver door opener.bmp: texture for a Silver Key
