A useful site for historical images from around the world. I guess the great thing about these kinds of resources is that they're going to grow over time.
Flickr: History Directory - 0 views

This is an enormous repository of images on flickr all devoted to history. The images are uploads are all done by random people (problem) so the tagging might be even worse than when I bookmark sites to our group. There'll be some gems in with all the trash though - useful for PowerPoints, sources on exams, student assignments, etc?
Flickr: The Commons - 0 views

I'd already saved this but it's such a good source for primary images that I've updated the tags and re-saved it. Flickr contains a surprisingly vast collection of historically relevant images and I'd recommend it for classroom resource design or student research. I guess, like with all user-generated content, there will be issues with the legitimacy and authenticity of some of the images however there are still many reliable photosets I've found which would be useful for a history teacher.

This is a collection of publicly held photographic archives, all put together on Flickr.
The Classics Pages: Antony Kamm's 'The Romans': start page - 0 views

Most of the information from this site is secondary, however it has some quotes from ancient authors in context and some beautiful images. The site maintains that the images are copyright and should be used only with permission and of course we'll do that. Of course.
Flickr: The Library of Congress' Photostream - 1 views
-
Contains collections on World War I, the Depression, Women's Lib and Honest Abe, among others. I'd imagine it will grow with time. I've actually found Flickr much better as a source of quality historical images than Google Images or Wikimedia Commons.

Has some choice images of ancient and medieval Italy which would be useful for assessment design, classroom resources or research. I found some of the information accompanying the images a little superficial, however.
