Since we have a post on free fonts - and who knew there was such an option? - I thought I'd ask if anyone knew of a site that offers free and decent quality photos for commercial application.

Thanks, guys, for the help.

Even after Wikipedia, I'm still trying to wrap my head around the Creative Commons idea. I've found some great shots for a future project but the pics I want to use are all on Flickr.

I thought Flickr was just a photo-sharing site. It feels borderline iffy to use those images.

Flickr is not a commons website, but you can find some images released by the Library of Congress at Flickr.com/commons. Many of those images have unknown origins, and there is a slight risk that someone could provide evidence of ownership in the future.
