David,
I have set up a site that gives lots of example VSEPR shapes. At
some point I was planning to add the capability to turn the lcao
cartoons on and off to represent the lone pairs. I think the lcao
cartoons can be used to make this work. You may want to take a look
at my site and some of the others out there before you reinvent the
wheel. If modifications of my site would meet your needs I would be
willing to collaborate on that.
My site is at: http://www.uwosh.edu/faculty_staff/gutow/
