What is a lightbox?

A lightbox is an area where you can save images to review or purchase later on. Only registered, logged-in users can use a lightbox. You do not need to use lightboxes to purchase. Lightboxes are great for saving images that you are interested in, and are the best way to have images approved by a client or supervisor before you buy.

Adding images to a lightbox

Click add to lightbox beneath the appropriate image(s) on the Search Results or Image Detail pages. If you haven't already logged in, you will be asked to do so. After logging in and selecting which lightbox to enter the image into, you will be able to view all of the images in that chosen lightbox. To check your lightboxes click the 'Lightbox' link in the header.

Changing lightboxes

By selecting a lightbox from the pull down menu at the top of the lightbox window you will automatically be shown the images in that lightbox.

All searches will automatically find forms of your keywords. You can exclude a keyword by typing "not" or a minus sign (-) before a keyword.

Select 'Request' from the top menu and write a few things about your desired image. You can also attach reference images to show us what kind of picture do you request. When everything is done, press the 'Send' button to send your request to us. Depending on the request, the requested image will be on the in a few days later.

About the color search

You can also search images by a color. Choose the preferred color on the Color Wheel or from the little image next to the big one and click on Color Search. You can combine color search with keywords.

What is this little image next to the big one?

This is a fantastic brand new feature, first apperared on Pixelfoto.hu. On the little images you can see the original image's most common colors in three variations.
The first one is the "Exact". The most preceise color representation is this image
The second one is the "Weighted". It gives you a smooth blend between the "Exact" and the "Averaged" colors.
The third one is the "Averaged". This method gives a new color for each pixel, made from the average of the pixels in that area.
You can pick the color from directly this image to search. This routine is good for those people who would like to see where the searched color on the image is.
