  • The Persistance of Vision Raytracer – free and open-source raytracer.
  • Oyonale – website of Gilles Tran, an accomplished POV-Ray artist. I don’t think it’s been updated in eleven years, though.
  • Friedrich Loehmuller‘s website, has some good tutorials. Don’t think it’s been updated in about three or four years, though.
  • Rune S. Johansen‘s website, has some tutorials, and a variety of content, not only POV-Ray related stuff. Looks like he last updated his blog December of 2019, so kind of quiet, but not dead yet.
  • Warp’s Homepage. Well, his raytracing gallery, at least.
    • He also has four tips to improve a simple raytrace scene. Could be useful.
  • P.O.V.-Place, an old POVRay website, which at a brief glance, has some inspiring images at least. No tutorials, though.
  • Christof Horman’s website. He is one of the developers of POVRay, and it looks like he still updates his website. Well, he updates his blog regularly; it looks like the rest hasn’t been touched in a few years. He does have a decent POVRay section, including tutorials.
  • The Persistence of Ignorance, the website of Jaime Vives Piqueres. It has some good resources, tools, and a gallery of pictures as well.
  • No Lights, the site of Tim Nikias. Not sure about updates, but it does have what looks like some good include files, such as a set of macros for liquid surface simulation. Might be useful.
