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 tentative list 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 (includes source for related images)
- Bubble memory driver coils and guides
- Bubble memory guide patterns
- C core
- CRT color (source code is in a sub-page, and includes source for other images)
- Carbon nanoribbon chiral povray (there are also several other similar images by the same author)
- Cavallo's multiplier labelled (source code is on the talk page)
- Chain (licensed under the GPL, but not CC; source is linked to but is off-site)
- Euclidian and non euclidian geometry
- Hall effect
- Jack plug
- Pentdod gruen neu anim (a stylized dodecahedron in a glass case)
It is also good to check the category of POV-generated files:
