User Guide (Creative Images Search)

•Category and Keyword Search

•Keyword Search
You can search for images by entering a keyword of your choice.
When searching for multiple keywords, include a SPACE between the words.
In such case, don't forget to choose either to search for "All of the Words (AND) " or for "Any of the Words (OR) ".

•"All of the Words (AND) " Search
This function will enable you to search for images including ALL of the entered keywords.
(e.g.: Entering "dog" "cat", will search for images including images with both keywords. Therefore, results will show images with both "dog" and "cat" in one image.)

•"Any of the Words" (OR) Search
This function will enable you to search for images incuding ANY of the entered keywords.
(e.g.: Entering "dog" "cat", will search for all images with the keyword "dog" and all images with the keyword "cat". Therefore, results will show images with just "dog", images with just "cat", plus images with both "dog" and "cat".)

•"Without the Words" (NOT)
You can refine your search result by entering keywords you don't want to include. (This function is optional.)
(e.g.: If you search for "dog" AND "cat", and enter "outside" in the WITHOUT box, it will search for images that include "dog" and "cat" keywords but NOT those pictures keyworded with "outside."

•Set Categories (RM, RF, Vertical, Horizontal)
By checking the boxes you can refine your search by picture orientation (horizontal, vertical) or by use type (RM, RF).
