Here are some good web sites to try for graphic images. These are alternate sources to the graphic images linked to big search engines, which are often blocked by our Internet filter Bess. Because many of the clipart and photo sites contain images that are in the public domain, meaning copyright-free, you will also have fewer worries about copyright issues.  Please use these graphics for educational and school purposes only. In addition, please remember not to alter the images or sell them, and use them only a moderate number of times. Any specific copyright restrictions will be noted.
