An alternative idea, if sourcing for images is an issue, make it a simple affair (or just let us know how) to add in images through player mods.

Images taken by US military personnel in the course of their duties should be free of copyright (as with any work of the US government). Images taken by war correspondents, or taken by journalists in general dockside, are probably under copyright for WWII, out of copyright for WWI. I'm not sure what applies for images taken by non-US militaries.

I'm not sure what applies for images taken by non-US militaries. That was kind of why I was hoping to find out if they could be added in by the playerbase. While some busybody could certainly cause trouble for NWS if a copyrighted image was included in RtW, there's basically nothing major that can be done if it's a player mod.

Actually, I was looking through images on Wikipedia, and it appears images from the Japanese military taken during the war are in the public domain.
In any case, it looks like anything that can be found in the photo collections at history.navy.mil is public domain unless otherwise noted.

Adding this one for "new seaplane ready for service", since it's frankly beautiful.

Another for "# [Plane] are approaching enemy ships!", although it might need a bit of editing. By the way, as someone with a bit of photoshopping experience, I might consider editing together some photos to come up with some images that would pass the casual examination of in-game notifications.

Here's an attempt to take several photos and with a bit of editing, put them together in an attempt to create a convincing portrayal of an aircraft attacking a ship.
