There are a couple of threads on here with a big list of free and cheap photo sites, I have them linked on my other computer so can't post them right now, but someone else might put the link in.
I'm always cautious about using images, because free doesn't always mean free! So I like to see "simple" usage terms.
I use morguefile.com, suggested by Fiona. Their usage terms, right on the front page:
Search Morgue File for free reference images. Yes, they're all completely free. whether you're an illustrator, art director, instructor or looking to add a defining visual to a presentation.
and, a little "deeper" on their site
morgue file contains free high resolution digital stock photographs and reference images for either corporate or public use. The purpose of this site is to provide free image reference material for illustrators, comic book artist, designers, teachers and all creative pursuits.

To the extent possible under law, uploaders of Pixabay have waived all copyright and related or neighboring rights to these Images. You are free to adapt and use the Images for commercial purposes without attributing the original author or source. Although absolutely not required, a link back to Pixabay would be nice.
Last time I needed images, I used Getty Images. Think I had to credit the owner when using them. It may have changed now as haven't used the site for a while.
You can check this free image library trial package within .net framework developing applications, with which, users are capable of processing images, like rotating, resizing, cropping and flipping, annotating image with more than ten kinds of annotation objects, viewing image in windows, web and mobile applications and even combining image managment with barcode creating and scanning toolkits.

Or you can do a creative commons search http://search.creativecommons.org/

All pictures are free for commercial and personal use.

That's an avatar site rather than images isn't it?
