I was thinking of a way to get really usefull objects into the object 
collection. If you have a database of the objects, it should be possible to 
have a "most requested object" fron the search entries. This most requested 
object could then be displayed so that anyone interested could make the 
object and upload it. The "most requested object" for the month that hasn't 
been done could then be used for an "Pov-Ray Object Compettion" of which the 
winners entry get uploaded to the Object Library.

That's a good idea. There is a database, but it doesn't currently record 
which search terms people have used. It should be a pretty small change 
however.

I've just been asking for such ideas over on the povray.object-collection 
newsgroup so I'll add this to the list.

Regards,
Chris B.
