Search Half a Billion Free Stock Images with the Ultimate Free Stock Photo Search Chrome Extension

Sept. 20, 2010 - PRLog -- The Ultimate Free Stock Photo Search Tool addon for Google Chrome is the latest release from the picNiche stock photography toolset. The addon makes it easy to quckly search through an estimated half a billion free images from over 200 websites offering free images.

The websites it gives access to offer a variety of free image licenses covering commercial usage or personal only use and public domain rights on many millions of images. Some of the sites included are flickr creative commons, wikimedia commons, SXC.hu, PhotoXpress, Morgefile, Stock Vault, Free Foto, PicApp, Every Stock Photo, USGS and NASA, the New York public library, Dreamstime, Pixmac, and 123RF free stock image libraries and hundreds of others.

The addon also makes it easy to open searches direct to microstock agencies offering low-cost licensing for when you just can't find that image you want for free. Microstock sites include iStockphoto, Shutterstock, Dreamstime, Fotolia, 123 Royalty Free and Bigstock.

The Ultimate Free Stock Photo Search Tool addon adds a button to your main Chrome toolbar so it uses very little space on your browser, and has a huge range of options to choose from the simple popup. The options menu also helps you to use the found free images easily by generating a HTML snippet with attribution for the image-page to help you quickly comply with creative commons usage requirements.

A simple link-button is available for every single site to quickly open the terms of use or license agreement for any free image site so you can be sure you're using any free image legally and avoid any issues with misuse which are a risk when getting your free stock photos through unreliable sources like google or bing image search where they cannot be sure of the license terms.
