Recently, I figured out that my players are tre' impressed when I show them pictures. I get a lot of ohhhhh and ahhhhhhs. I have raided all the spots I can think of for good monsters pictures. This is where I have been:

THe Creature Catalog- Only had a dozen or so but they were of very high quality
MS Word Clip Art- Found a couple decent ones here as well (couple of dragons, skeletons, a cyclops, etc)
THe Artist forum here- THose guys are great!

ANy suggestions on where else I can look?

Kirith's Portrait Gallery. Click on "Others" and it'll take you to pics of Death Knights, Vampires etc.

There's always Elfwood (http://elfwood.lysator.liu.se/), although it's a very mixed bag -- there's some excellent stuff there, but there's also a lot of crap, particularly in the "fairies with big boobies" genre.

I'm quite fond of Pen & Paper's art gallery (http://pen-paper.net/modules.php?op=modload&name=gallery&file=index), which features a lot of big-name artists with samples of their work. Between what's there and the links to the artists' websites, there's a lot to look at.

What should I search for with Google?

I don't there will be a ton of hits for "image of a blindheim"

go to google, just above where you normally entetr your query (is that the right term?) is a series of "buttons" push images.

then enter your monster name, or town, or anything.
