This page lists images which for some reason are not linked to where they are from. This is usually a work article, but some art is linked to an external site to credit the artist. Stock photos are not generally sourced because they are everywhere and do not originate from a work.
See also this thread in Image Pickin' and the Image Source pages. Pages should not be added to this list unless the IP thread and image searches through resources like Google and Tineye have not worked.
