Color Percentages Search Quick Start

Let's say you want to find an pictures with a lot of grass in them. Since grass is usually green, you probably would search on an image with 80-90% green. To do this:
  1. Click on the radio button next to Color 1
    There are a total of 5 colors you can specific. This is telling the program that you want to change color #1
  2. Click on a green box of the appropriate shade in the color picker(image with 256 colored boxes on the left). At this point, the page will reload and you will see a green icon appears next to Color 1.
  3. Click on the "- %" bar on by Color 1 and select 80 %. For Web Explorer, press the up arrow beside the bar until you see 80%.
    You are telling the program that you want about 80% green in the picture.
  4. Hit the "Submit Search" button above the color picker.
Note: colors with just a "%" next to they will not be considered in the search
