(Any kind of) bark will rot and pollute the water inside your aquarium, so it has to be removed.
As for Willow, I am not sure if it is safe.

@ Darkblade: First link is just the first aquascape listed when you click through on the second link. Interestingly, both "A Tree's Life" and "Mysterious Bermuda" use bark only - no wood. I know one on the journals purports to use some python git to treat the wood before insertion into the tank, but nothing beyond that.
As far as how long they've been setup...I dont know. Most of these tanks are created to compete in the annual IAPLC (and many have placed in the top 20 in recent years). I suspect that each tank is functional for at least 4 months to a year.
@J-P: Most of the setup narratives have links you can click through to see the tank once finally setup and fully operational. Usually the fish show up in these pictures, as the fish are an accent to the planted layout vs the other way around.
As for the first, Mysterious Bermuda, the completion pictures can be found HERE
