Polyvore is a great site for exploring clothes and fashion vocabulary at different levels and with varying degrees of complexity. Basically what your students can do is go to the site at: http://www.polyvore.com and then click on 'Create a look'. They then create a 'look' by dragging in various articles of clothing from the tabs at the sides.

Image search engine. Looks good but windows only.

A quick shout tip on using image slideshows for reading and speaking practice. Theme of travel.

Online pictionary with text chat

Tutorial search engine for the free Photoshop equivalent Gimp. (Free download at: http://www.gimp.org/) This is for those who want to get serious about creating and editing their own images. There's also a version to find Photshop tutorials (Photoshop isn't free though) http://www.vunkysearch.net/

Love these photprojects by Simon Hogsberg. I particularly like this one of 10 new yorkes talking about their faces.

Some great interactive sideshows with audio. Great examples of digital narrative and multimedia journalism. Ehgaging materials for students. Some heavy content though so choose carefully.

Really striking images with good short texts. The images can really motivate students to want to dig deeper and read the text. From the Boston Globe "The Big Picture" web pages, collections of some of the most amazing photographs that range from natural wonders to political events. The page includes an RSS feed, a comments section, and archives are also available.
