My contracts vary.

I can send out content to buyer, without license and docs, with tracking number. They do not get the docs/license until paid in full. I can build sites for people, and control the domain name, and not turn it over until paid in full.

So the short answer is, "have I"? Yes.

That said, a design is no different in your example. A design is one piece of the puzzle. It still must be cut and encoded, typically, to CSS/HTML and integrated into the design. So you are not 'done' until all of it is completed (assuming you actually have the skill set to do it all. Some designers do, some do not).

Hence, you flash your pretty design, and get paid before they can actually 'use' it.
