I am aware of three papers published in different journals about in-
house developed ImageJ applications:

Maybe you could try one of those journals. Perhaps Microscopy  
Research and Technique or Journal of Microscopy would be appropriate.  
Most reviewers will want to see some kind of application though or  
proof of concept about the utility of the application. There is also  
magazines like Microscopy Today, Biophotonics, and BioTechniques that  
might allow a short communication about an application.
