Now where the site is again fully up and running I noticed that there has 
not been any new addition to the collection recently.So it would be great 
if you could dig out some of your objects for POV-Ray and share it with the 
world by contributing to the POV-Ray Objects Collection. (Of course you can 
also submit things you have already made public on the newsservers.)

You find the collection at:
http://objects.povworld.org or also
http://www.povworld.de/objects

I will also try to set up a mirror in the next days.

A question: Shall I expand the collection by a separate section for (that 
kind of) macros which are currently not included? The original reason for 
excluding them was that there was already a own collection for them.

For those you have never heard of the collection:

"This is a collection of objects from POVRay user. The collection is 
public, that means everybody can access to the object and everybody is 
welcome to put up his or her own objects. The idea of this collection is to 
share, so when you download objects please take care to help this 
collection growing by adding objects you have written or modelled by 
yourself.
Though this collection is a POVRay collection, objects which are made with 
modelers (e.g. MORAY, Rhino3D) are also welcome. If you want to add such 
an object, please send your object in the format usually used with your 
modeler AND in the .pov format."

Probably like a lot of others, tidying up object code and submitting it to
the collection is very much on my "to do" list. There's just always
something else getting in the way....

Yeah, me too.  I have a few objects I want to submit, but some of them are
still 3.0 code.  Someday...

I took the pin-art model (POV 2.0) from your site and converted it into
a macro which uses trace() to actually produce an image of the object
you specify (sample in p.b.i) Is there any place for such macros in the
new improved site?

Done. I've sent you the Tintin's rocket in pov, moray and hamapatch format
 with the tga image map

Sure, there has always been place for macros which create objects. Just 
submit it and I will replace the old one with yours.

I can understand you.. I have as well too many hobby projects running. For 
example I am trying for more than 2 years now to recreate my personal home 
page.

How about a macro that generates a clock face?
Just submitted it.
