Recently, an effort has been begun to migrate POV-Ray scenes and objects from web pages hosted by the now defunct Geocities to the POV-Ray Object Collection. Discussion toward this end has occurred on the POV-Ray newsgroups, here, here and here. A log of sorts exists here.
In addition, there are also a number of objects/scenes that exist on Wikimedia Commons that were published under a compatible license, and include the POV-Ray source code. A list of them follows:
- Pentatope of 70 spheres animation original
- Pyramid of 35 spheres animation original
- Truncated octahedra
- Rhombic dodecahedra
- "poly.pov" - polyhedra library
- AGK pentacube
- Angular Parameters of Elliptical Orbit
- Bubble memory driver coils and guides
It is also good to check the category of POV-generated files:
