When is an Illustration not an Illustration?

We have been looking at the search results returned for a number of new proposed filters we'd like to make available to our customers. One such filter that customers have asked us for is the ability to look at just illustrations or just photographs. Unfortunately, upon checking the quality of the results we've been very disappointed with between 5 and 10% of results being inaccurate.

For a reminder of what we consider to be an illustration please see our help.

Also remember that within Manage Images v2.2 you now have many more tools to double check the quality of you data.

For example, with Illustrations, why not take a few minutes to double check the results, once in Manage Images v2.2 simply select - 'Type - Illustrations' from the filter list (see image above).

I'm sure you'd all like to just concentrate on the images themselves, but sadly the metadata is just as important these days and inaccurate data can lead to lost sales opportunities.
