 Here is what I consider my first finished and complete scene. All coded
by hand and mind bending all the way.

Note: No boxes were hurt during the construction of this scene.

This is better, Real First Images!, you would be surprised at how many of
us, when starting POV made scenes involving..

Cups, Weird HF's, Chess Boards and Coloums!!!

I know I did something with all of these at some point!

A gelatinous torus with a blue ball in the center, of course. j/k
Not much, is it?
If I remember right this would have rendered about a half day on my
486-33SX. That's right, no coprocessor.
Well, I have no idea why you would want the script for it and I was going
to post it here immediately, however, I failed to find it even after a
very in depth search here. To make it worse, while trying to locate the
file, if it still exists, I definately remember naming the image
"within.tga" although the script itself could be named anything
(glsdonut.pov?). Dates back to '93 after all. I even used Windows Find to
look for a possible text string inside all the files. I'm afraid I may
have house-cleaned and deleted the file long ago when I was juggling the
disk space for more renders. I got down to 0 bytes left on many occasions
while attempting animation frame output.
Want to see a quick remake? Here you go, not like the original sadly, this
isn't scene-file worthy so I'll drop it in here relating to this thread:

//BEGIN
//re-make of a first real attempt at a pov-ray scene, circa '93
global_settings {assumed_gamma 2.0}

// white pointlight at camera position
#declare LCX = 0
#declare LCY = 2
#declare LCZ = -4

light_source { <LCX+15,LCY+2.5,LCZ-15> color rgb 1}
camera {
  location  <LCX,LCY,LCZ>
  angle 64
  look_at   <-.2,0,0>
}

plane {z,7.5
 texture {pigment {bozo turbulence .7 frequency 3 color_map {
         [0 color rgb<.9,.9,.9>]
         [.33 color rgb<1.2,1.2,.4>]
         [.66 color rgb<1.2,.6,.3>]
         [1 color rgb<.9,.6,.6>]
         } ramp_wave scale 6}
        finish {ambient .25 diffuse .5}
         }
}
torus {1.2,.8 scale <1,.8,1>
 texture {pigment {rgbf<.9,.925,.975,.9>}
  finish {ambient .2 diffuse .4 specular .6 roughness .01 refraction on
ior 1.2}
  }
}
sphere {0,.66 //translate .125*y
 texture {pigment {rgb<.15,.1,.8>}
  finish {ambient .3 diffuse .7 metallic .5 brilliance 2}
  }
}
//END

I know the feeling, my hard drive gave up without warning last week. Lost
most of
my code, all of my image_maps and bump_maps.

This is my first real pic in pov (first was sphere over plane) For a friend
for christmas.

Books by Sonya Robert, chain by someone I don't remember now. Rest my own
work.

Why is it this makes sense. Ken - image, Ken - image, image - Ken.

The second thing I did, the first is lost (lens on checkers plane with gold
cylinder). Took 37 hours to render (800x600). It almost made me quit POV, what
did I know about render times.

Ok, everyone's doing this so I guess I am allowed as well. This is one of my first
2-3 images (same scene anyway) and was done with POV 3.02 in oktober/november
1996. An exchange student from USA recommended POV when I needed some sort of 3d
program to visualize a house I had made in a cheap CAD program. I was very proud
of the floor - you've guessed it, it's DMFWood6. I just remember thinking "this is
a strange program - it's for visual use, still there's just text to describe the
scene!" Guess times have changed since....

You started well then, my first 20-30 (well, okay, maybe not that many)
images were not too significant, much like my first. In fact I did quite a
bit of rendering other peoples scripts at first.

Chess set complete with clock, I like it! But...
the kings and queens should be in the same file facing
