Search stock photos by color scheme. I generally hate (hate hate hate) that obnoxious stock photography that shows up everywhere, but this is actually kind of cool. Pick a color, and find pictures that match your site. I'd love to see this kind of tool hooked up to more personal photo galleries.

Waitaminnit. So, this is Mr. MetaFilter and this would be Ms. MetaTalk?

No wonder I've been spending more time in the gray.

yhbc, I just did your astrological chart and it says here that you are both optimistic and color-blind.

This is a more accurate representation for MetaTalk.

Not only a great resource for web designers, but a pretty good asset for designers of photo-mosaic illustration.

Mr. Crash...good search filter idea...but in setting up any "fleshtone" search criteria, remember to keep in mind the Crayola crayon "Flesh" crayon controversy.(Flesh-becomes-Peach info near end of paragraph.)
