Randy, AAOP has a membership section of their web site for this purpose.

I have a number of prosthetic related images I have collected from the
Internet or scanned and was just asked by PBS to help with a project.
Also try using the image search features of Goolge.com and
Alta-Vista.com
Hope this helps.

You might try the Academy's Online Graphics Library in the Members Only
area. It's one of your exclusive membership benefits. While the number
of images in the library is still in the hundreds it may contain what
you're looking for. The images are also searchable by keyword.
And if I may . . . while we're on the topic, for those of you that have
photos, slides, illustrations, or other O&P images stored in your file
drawers, stuck in shoeboxes in the back of your closets, or (hopefully)
neatly stored and cataloged in scrapbooks . . . please consider donating
them to the Online Graphics Library. Your images will be digitally
copied and returned to you. In addition, you'll receive a CD with those
images for the convenience of your continued use.
Almost all practitioners have made presentations are one time or another
and have used images of patients, devices, or techniques. These would
all be excellent. The Academy would appreciate donations of images to
place in this library for the benefit of all members.
Send them to me at the Academy's office, 526 King St, Suite 201,
Alexandria, VA 22314 or electronically by email to <Email Address Redacted>

As an Academy member you are able to search hundreds of O&P images free
of charge. Simply log on to the Academy's Members Only section. I hope
this member benefit will prove helpful in your search.
