compfight: your new favorite idea-generation tool

"Ever wish you didn't have to click through two or three pages to do an "Advanced search" at photo sharing site Flickr, and then click around further to find the right size and photo options? Compfight, an AJAX-powered search site utilizing Flickr's API, is a super-streamlined interface for finding search terms in either tags or descriptions, choosing between Creative Commons and more traditional licenses, and popping up original sizes or choosing to head to a photo's default photo/comments page. Better still, mouse over a photo with a blue bottom border, and you'll see what size the original is available in. We've seen specialized search tools for Flickr before, but Compfight simply takes Flickr's built-in search tools and puts all the results on one super-thumbnailed page."

This got a big old "so what" from me when I first saw it, but trust me, play with it for a few minutes the next time you need to jog the visual thinking part of your brain.

livesurface takes the work out of photocomping

Some pretty amazing stuff at LiveSurface. Much better than searching Google Images and crossing our fingers.

They're maybe a bit pricey, but the vanishing point implementation, masking and shading is pretty spot-on. I found a few of these if you'd like to play around; email me.

Or maybe this gives us an idea to do this ourselves…
