Here's another suggested resource:
Virtual Body by Medtropolis
http://www.medtropolis.com/VBody.asp
Available in English and Spanish text and audio, this resource has an interactive component and teaches the basics of the brain, skeleton, heart, and digestive tract. The target audience is the public.
Take care,
Tanya

Hello, everyone. Here's an additional 2 links that I added to a webliography for my occupational therapist audience:
Hypermuscle: Muscles in Action from the University of Michigan
http://www.med.umich.edu/lrc/Hypermuscle/Hyper.html
has quick-loading videos of muscle movement
The Hosford Muscle Tables
http://www.ptcentral.com/muscles/
text format lists origin, insertion, action, blood supply, & innervation of muscles
And here's a few suggestions from the lists:
You may want to try the University of Guelph catalog. As you may or may not know, Guelph is most famous for it's veterinary and agricultural programs. What few people know is that Guelph also has one of the best Human Anatomy courses in the country to sevice both it's art and kinesiology students. If I could send you a contact, I would, but I've been away too long for that..
Can't remember if you already summarized -- and I'm sure you prefer free sites -- but the following subscription-based product had a demo at MLA Hawaii (I wasn't there, but I saw their promotional material): Thieme Teaching Assistant Anatomy at http://www.thiemeteachingassistant.com
Take care,
Tanya

I received some excellent suggestions, below is what I ultimately chose to share with fellow OTs:
Atlas of the Human Body from the American Medical Association
http://www.ama-assn.org/ama/pub/physician-resources/patient-education-materials/atlas-of-human-body.shtml
The illustrations for Effects of Stroke and Hand--Carpal Tunnel are unique; the site also gives concise illustrations of blood supply and anterior and posterior views of all the body muscles and more
Cranial Nerves from Yale
http://info.med.yale.edu/caim/cnerves/
Cranial nerve review by Yale University School of Medicine
Enhanced Neurological Eye Simulator from UC Davis University of California
http://cim.ucdavis.edu/Eyes/eyesim.htm
"Disable" various ocular muscles and as you move your mouse, you can see how gaze is altered
Lumen Learn 'Em
http://www.lumen.luc.edu/lumen/meded/grossanatomy/learnem/learnit.htm
I like the unique content on the site (Cutaneous Innervation and Dermatomes) but you may have to drag the frames with your mouse to enlarge the viewing area, which can be a bit annoying at times
Muscle Atlas from the University of Washington
http://www.rad.washington.edu/academics/academic-sections/msk/muscle-atlas
Color illustrations of individual upper and lower extremity muscles and concise information: Origin, Insertion, Action, Innervation, and Arterial Supply.
Musculoskeletal Atlas from the University of Washington
http://depts.washington.edu/msatlas/
The Skeletal System from Minnesota State University
http://www.mnsu.edu/emuseum/biology/humananatomy/skeletal/skeletalsystem.html
A basic review of the skeletal system; click on the hyperlinks to view a photo of the bone(s)
Winking Skull from the medical publisher Thieme
http://www.winkingskull.com/
You don't need to register or pay to use the site, but you may need to download a free plug-in; click on a region (linked towards the lower right) to begin, includes views of muscles and bones with ligaments
Thank you again, and below is the complete list from everyone:

Hello, everyone. Can anyone please suggest any anatomy websites? I'm looking for ones that show the basics: muscles, bones, nerves, blood vessels in drawings or photographs. I don't want radiology images.
Here's what I have so far:
http://www.ama-assn.org/ama/pub/physician-resources/patient-education-materials/atlas-of-human-body.shtml
http://www.mnsu.edu/emuseum/biology/humananatomy/index.shtml
http://www.lumen.luc.edu/lumen/meded/grossanatomy/learnem/learnit.htm I like this site for my audience of occupational therapists, but it has annoying frames that you have to drag to make the viewing area larger
http://da.biostr.washington.edu/da.html
http://www.mercksource.com/pp/us/cns/cns_home.jsp The Interactive Body Guide (link on the left) for some reason only shows the frontal view of the body
Thank you,
Tanya
