New way to search for Stock Photography

Ever had a color scheme in mind and needed some interesting photos to fill a design project?  Us too.  Ever noticed how difficult it can be to find photos that match those colors when you need them?  Us too!   Thats why we are excited about these two new Photo Search tools! 

Multicolr Search LabFrom Lifehacker: "Multicolr Search Lab, a free search utility, digs through roughly 3 million images in Flickr's "Interesting" set for photos featuring the colors you select. You can make one color more prominent by selecting it multiple times, and the results seem pretty genuine—my only complaint is that you have to find the colors with your eyes, and can't put in hexadecimal or RGB values grabbed from graphics programs. The color search engine also has a front end for Alamy Stock Photography for those in need of definite royalty-free images."

 

Color Fields Colr PickrAlso From Lifehacker: " Color Fields Colr Pickr webapp searches Flickr for images using only a color wheel, and no other search fields. Simply click on the color you're interested in and Flickr images made up of mostly that color surround the wheel. The Color Fields Colr Pickr is extremely accurate and can immediately identify images that closely match your selection. If you're looking for another way to search for background images, try Wallpapr."
