First... be careful if it's your employers application. They might not
want their database schema posted for the world to see. If that's not an
issue then...
I'd write up an overview document. Include some screenshots. Basically a
resume for your app. Make it long enough so it's clear that it's complex
and clear what you did, but short enough so that the person can understand
what it is the app does and what you did.
If you can, host a private copy of the application for demoing purposes
that you can show on a case by case basis.
And if you're releasing the code, by all means post it (tgz or zip) so
those curious can glance through it...
