The creator of the image retains copyrights as per the IRTC document.
The (non-povray-enthusiast) purchaser of the CD sure would be bummed if he bought
all the IRTC CD's   AND this one, and found 20% repetition!

If it's sitting on your web page, sure, send it in. You have in effect assigned a

page--it doesn't forbid you giving it away to be sold...
