This page contains a list of image resources which may be useful to WikiProject Volcanoes, and for enhancing articles within its scope. Many excellent images can be found on Wikimedia Commons, especially in the categories listed at right. Note that many images which are available on Commons are not properly categorized yet, so it is useful to also search directly for images there.
