Stock photo agency launches second generation of powerful image search interface
“The new Masterfile.com is a game changer: it makes the task of sifting through millions of images an enjoyable, rewarding and ultimately creative experience.” – Steve Pigeon, President.
In addition to powerful extant features like SimSearch™, zoom and visual pairing, new capabilities enable users to:
- Customize the interface
- Open, refine and save searches on multiple tabs
- Search by colour with preset palettes
- Review previously enlarged images with an extensive search history
- and perhaps the most interesting feature of all:
- Upload a reference image and find a similar – or a match – in seconds!
John McDonald, Masterfile's Vice-President of Product Development and the technology's creator says “The new Masterfile interface allows you to find the right image faster than ever with a minimum of effort. In effect, you can search literally and visually and see the results in parallel. When you're looking for that one image in a million, Masterfile will help you find it faster than anything on the planet.”
