FlickrStorm Application

FlickrStorm - one way to find your perfect photo.

If you’re the kind of person who spends hours in PowerPoint every day… you probably know this scenario.

You have slides. They content. But what you don’t have is a photo that works. That flows. That matches the graphic your boss gave you.

Have a color you need to match?

Try multicolr search lab. Simply click on a color (or a combination of colors) from the chart, and photos that match are displayed. It’s simple. It’s awesome.

Looking for a visual answer to a phrase?

Compfight is your answer. Enter a phrase. Find answers.

Worried about Copyright and Acceptable Use?

CreativeCommons Search.

What about browsing through large numbers of photos?

FlickrStorm, baby. Type in a word or phrase, and watch the thumbnails pop up. Click on them and they are displayed on the right hand panel, so you don’t lose your group of photos. Create a “tray” (lightbox) of favorite photos, then bulk download. This is a great way to develop a listing of photos you are looking at for a pitch.

I must be making a lot of PowerPoints lately, as they seem to be a topic of many of my blog posts….
