So you're uploading your stock images like never before, but what if no one finds them? Cyclops makes it easy for Microstock customers to find images on many sites at once - and with just one click.
As Microstock photography becomes more and more popular these days, the number of available images increases every day (well, second actually). It can be very time consuming for people in search for one special image to navigate to every stock site out there, doing the same search again and again and again.
Cyclops solves this problem. It a bit like the Google principle: One clearly structured starting page, one text field to enter your search and clearly structured results from many sources.
Furthermore you can assemble your own lightboxes and share them with other, very useful and Web 2.0 like.
The following stock and photo sites can be searched using Cyclops:
- Flickr
- Shutterstock
- Bigstockphoto
- Fotolia
- stock.xchng
- Cutcaster
- Photo.com
- stockvault
Verdict
The idea came at the right time. Cyclops makes it easy to find what you want with only a few clicks, is very user friendly and offers modern features.
The only thing about Cyclo.ps is the fact that it seems to be quite unpopular so far. But if the ideas are extended fruther, I'm quite sure the site will become a popular and very useful tool for people searching stock images. The modern, stylish and to-the-point graphics, combined with a great layout make this site really worth a bookmark, so check it out!
And they have a green monster, their own interpretation of the cyclops , didn't I mention that before?
