The only things not allowed are those which cause serious offence (I'm
sure you can think of an example relating to air traffic...); I can't
see a flying saucer falling into that category :-]

Just mail me the model; note that vehicles don't need to be normalised
to a box like structures do.

Yep; anything goes. (see above)

I'm using MegaPOV 0.7 until a stable release of POV3.5 comes out, then
I'll be switching to that.

PVC_GroundTex will probably be some sort of granite ForestGreen thingy
(unless anyone has better - no isotextures please!) for most of the
year, but a nice white colour in winter (see the section on macros in
http://www.geocities.com/greyknight3/pov_city.htm for more details on
time in PVC-II)

While we're on the subject of time... should the website:
a:  display an image of PVC-II at the current time in the user's time
zone
b:  display an image of PVC-II at the current GMT time
c:  display several images, at different times of day
d:  display a daytime image with the option to switch to other times
e:  [your suggestion here]
