What is required to get into Hall of Fame? Nomination? Seems majority of
pictures are from just a few artists. I believe some BESTS are missing.

Where is JRG (IMO best at CSG best at traditional still life)?
Where is Shay (IMO most beautiful geometric renders best at intricate hand
coding)?
Where is Veijo Vilva (IMO best at surrealism)?

I might think of others if I took more time.

The images were selected by the owner of the POV-Ray server based on 
suggestions by some members of the POV-Community.  Note the last 
additions have been some time ago, therefore a lot of very good newer 
images can not (yet) be found there.

If you think some image is seriously missing you can of course mention 
it here or privately to a Team or TAG member.  But note there is nothing 
like a nomination system and the HOF is only updated from time to time.

If the community would like to work together and come up with a list of
proposals for addition to (and even removal from, for existing images) the
HOF, I'd be open to hear it. I just don't have the time to read the
newsgroups and often don't even see some of those images.

If you do come up with a list please email me to let me know (i.e. don't
depend on me following up this thread!)

I, *eternal newuser*, will try to revise the whole of 2008 newsgroups to find
new potential HOF.

I believe that I will not struggle to find other gems: and for me it is a
pleasure.

In the final send my proposals to Mr. Cason.

You do that.  But what I think is really missing is web access to all of p.b.i
and p.b.a complete with reasonably sized thumbnail and a voting system.
There's about as much goodness hiding in there as in IRTC...
