I echo Grumpy Old Teacher’s sentiments exactly when he says:
Again I say, let’s get our students (and colleagues) to stop using
Google Images, and get some real quality images into their work!
Amen to that, grumpy!
Suggestions, including one new one:
- Every Stock Photo — Free search Engine for stock photos including the ability to critique and share your photos. What a great idea. (from Grumpy)
- Flickr Storm – (Also from Grumpy)
- Creative Commons Search – I’ve been using the built in creative commons searches in Firefox to find ours. (This is what we use.)
What are your places for good, high quality, free photos?

I don’t know how high quality they are, but I use Microsoft Office Online and download free clip art and photos.
Flickr is becoming an incredibly valuable resource for Creative Commons images, and has a really simple search function. If only all Flickr users would be more conscientious with their tagging of images!
Keep up the good work – I’m enjoying your ideas and thoughts.
