Thanks for summarising this course which sounds like an interesting one - I'll be saving the image search engine URLs for future use. I used to use Picasa (note spelling by the way) for photo management but recently discovered Windows Live Photo Gallery - Windows only of course, but a surpisingly good bit of software which seems less buggy and clunky than Picasa and can upload to Flickr.

[...] Ramblings of a Remote Worker added an interesting post today on Finding Free to Use Images OnlineHere’s a small readingLast week I attended a Finding Free-to-Use Images Online course at JISC Digital Media (the organisation formerly known as TASI) along with shirley Keane, our UKOLN Web editor.

I actually ran an i [...]

Hi Marieke

As an old school Flickr user, I still tend to go there first (and last) and use their advanced search for CC photos. I generally like to relieve the textual tedium of my posts on our DA Blog with some interesting image, and Flickr always comes up trumps. I usually drop the image owner a note via Flickr saying what I’ve done – everyone’s always very friendly.

One interesting Flickr tale of mine: a while back I made some photos of my wife’s enamel Soviet badge collection http://www.flickr.com/photos/sovznak and a while later I was contacted by the guys who were creating this graphic design book, Signs and Symbols by Keith Stephenson (http://tinyurl.com/cyhfge), and they ended up using quite a lot of the pictures in their book. We have a copy, it’s really nice!

I recommend also you check out TinEye (http://tineye.com/cool_searches) which can search for images using images. Do you remember James Currall’s image-search-challenge at IWMW 2008? TinEye’s got the answer: http://tinyurl.com/dyqdk2
