    <pre> Kurt - Keys words are the best way to search. Most of the search engines now include "Image search" based on keywords. I just used record labels to check it out - http://www.thrall.org/proimage.html - accesses several image search engines http://multimedia.lycos.com Ditto . com has been around awhile and is exclusively a directory of images on the web. For it too search is based on keyword. http://www.ditto.com/ - found 65 record labels http://ixquick.com - found several labels http://isurf.interpix.com/ - not too good There are several programs out there which find images by imaging, but couldn't quickly find any sites using them. I had thought some site had adopted IBM's QBIC ( a granddaddy), but no luck .

    Good luck Trudy
