Graphic Search Engines

• Google Images Google has the best search engine by far. I except its image search to be just as good.
• Altavista Graphics Search- A powerful site. I typed in "trains" and got 500 images about 1/3 of which were actually useful. The coolest feature of this site is it return thumbnails of the images found so that you have some idea what you getting before you click.
• C-Net Image Search a meta-search page for graphics. You can use this site to search up to nine different graphics sites (in any combination).
• GoGraph -A graphics search engine site, newly redesigned. Also has a nice links list.

Starting Points

• Absolute Web Graphics http://www.grsites.com/webgraphics/
• Free Graphics What is cool about this site is the effort the author has put into categorizing and filtering these sites. It can take a while to get to real pictures, but the results are almost always worth it.
• Clipart.com A truly massive collection of links to other clipart sites.
  
  

Textures and Backgrounds

• Absolute Textures and Backgrounds - great site for backgrounds - has everything imaginable
• Enchanted Backgrounds A site worth a look for the quality of the design.
  
  

Sounds

• The Dailey Wav
• The Wav-a-torium

This category is mighty thin. Any additions?
