This invention relates to a silver halide photothermographic imaging element comprising at least one silver halide emulsion layer, said silver halide element further comprising an amido compound of Formula Iwherein INH is a development inhibitor;LINK is a linking or timing group and m is 0, 1 or 2; and R1 and R2 independently are a hydrogen atom or an aliphatic, aromatic or heterocyclic group, or R1 and R2 together with the nitrogen to which they are attached represent the atoms necessary to form a 5 or 6 membered ring or multiple ring system, or R1 and R2 are independently a -C(=O)(LINK)m-INH group, or are substituted with a -NR3C(=O)-(LINK)m-INH , with R3 being defined the same as R1 or R2, with the proviso that only one of R1 and R2 can be a hydrogen atom. It further relates to methods of image formation utilizing said element.
