I will simply get rid of this job. Since you did not answer, may be the wheather
is to fine at south France, here is my work
The following list treats only the broken links or the ones showing problems
respectively:
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
POV-Ray People Pages
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Anto Matkovic's Page
POV content removed. Older content can be found easily at wayback.
Dennis Miller's Page
http://web.archive.org/web/20120319140240/http://www.casdn.neu.edu/~dmiller/
IB Rassmusan home page
First there is a typo above. The main page is running, but I could not follow
his internal links.
Liam Jackson's online portfolio.
Has 45 entries at wayback. I have not looked through all. But seems that only
the html is archived and not the content.
Mathematical Art
Can be deleted here, since it is in the "include"-section too.
Pod - Home Page
Site is still active, but I don't think that this pics are renderings. Has 60
entries at wayback, mostly HTTP 302. The earlier mirrors have only the main
page.
POV-Ray Users Website
http://web.archive.org/web/20050828224610/http://rsj.mobilixnet.dk/povrayusers/general.html
No photographs of the entrants, only the list and the given biographies.
Steve's 0 PPS Home Page
http://web.archive.org/web/20080509105020/http://www.zeropps.uklinux.net/
The World of POV-Ray Users
http://web.archive.org/web/20070505111338/http://www.3digitaleyes.com/povwrldjpg.htm
Only main page, so somewhat useless.
Thorsten R. Frohlich Website
http://web.archive.org/web/20120501044145/http://trf.de/
Uncle Tyler's Get Away
http://web.archive.org/web/20080514063612/http://home.pacbell.net/tylereng/index.html
Is in the "macro"-section too.
United Artists Galleries
http://web.archive.org/web/20040605143629/http://jkuag.tripod.com/gallery.html
webring.povray.co.uk
Can only find the main page at wayback, not the sites. I was not really
surprised. There is a link to another webring somewhere here
[hub.webring.org/hub/povrayring] containing the sites from N.B., Sonya Roberts
(with the loss of her tree macros) and many others.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Tutorials
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
3D Cafe's Free Stuff
http://web.archive.org/web/20060301120449/http://www.3dcafe.com/wrapper/
Seems to be content there, but could not find POV-related stuff. I used the
first snapshot here since tha latest ones didn't work. And since this is a
larger site, I only tested to download a model, which worked, clicked a little
bit around and found no problems. But my tests are fare away from being
exhaustive.
Anatomy of an Explosion
Anatomy of a sprite
Same site, still active. Cannot find a POV-related content.

side is active at reocities, both links refer to the same resource

Wavefront. Robot Dog and Snowman for Poser 4.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Link Sites
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
As to link sites and their mirrors at the wayback machine: In some cases they
work, with others not. It seems that the wayback machine replaces links by
adding the actual address of the mirrored site at the wayback machine as a
prefix. Since the crawling stops after a certain depth or with links to other
sites, this replaced links cannot work.
