Protecting and searching for images with idée Labs

Have you ever needed to protect an image or find an image to suit your website based on a colour theme?

This clever of tool from idée Labs lets you search through images on Flickr that are filed under creative commons from a predefined colour you have requested.

The idée Piximilar search tool takes a few seconds to scan through thousands of images that match the colour theme you are looking for.

Identifying image pirates

The explosion of the Internet has led to an unprecedented rise in image theft and copyright infringements. The idée PixID technology lets you locate your images on the net and find out what they are being used for.

For commercial photographers this will allow them to stop illegal use or simply track usage for licensing and billing and generally protect creative rights.

The TinyEye image search engine allows you to locate images that have been used over the Internet - even if they have been modified.
