 I have made comments and suggestions below, indenting
 my text so that it appears in these little boxes.  Please
 work to address my suggestions and then get rid of these 
 boxes --Dr. Byrne 15:58, 30 January 2008 (EST)

[edit] Where to find images

  Can you put this list in context?  Why are we interested in such
  a list.  Actually, you have some of the answers on the disucssion
  tab of this article.  Bring what is appropriate over into the 
  article itself.

Google Image Search - General images search, will lead you to all different types of copyrighted material.

  What leads you to believe that all of the images are copyrighted?

Creative Commons - Images licensed under Creative Commons, see below for details on licenses.

Stock Exchange - Offers images for free (over 200,000 photos).

UDMNJ Libraries

  Probably a good idea to mention why those image collections
  are of special utility for us.

Morgue File - Providing "...free image reference material for use in all creative pursuits.

Flickr (Creative Commons Search) - People share photos.

  Rather than just say 'Creative Commons Search' please specify where
  flickr specifies its policy.  I cannot easily find that on the site.

Image*After - Free photos

  Again, do they specify?

Everystockphoto - Over 283,000 free photos.

Studio.25 - Free photos.

Freepixels - About 2000 photos.

The Photoshop tutorial blog - A compilation of other free image resources.

 Did you drill down into any of these resources (or find any other content-
 specific collections) that might be of special interest to the biomedical 
 sciences?

Any image published prior to January 1, 1923

 Yes, and what about such images?

[edit] Types of Creative Commons Licenses [1]

  Once again, can you put the categories below in context by a few sentences
  that introduce them?
