I found this website http://www.imageblowout.com which gives out free photos for personal as well as commercial use. No credit is needed so we need to provide no backlinks. Most of their images seems to be quite good. 1280x960 size with some images having 300 px/inch resolution. This seems to be a good resource for us webmasters. If you need images do check this website.

Here is another good site:

Stock Exchange ... The photographers set the usage permissions for each photo ... many times there are no restrictions and the pics are quite usable.

The downside is that the site is extremely popular and therefore many times the server is overloaded ...

MMM, maybe it's schools screen resolution, but the images don't seem so great themselves, but with some editing they could be good.

Not free, but cheap. The best is the one that started the open source image industry, iStockphoto. The others are based on that model.
