We have an amazing collection that's filled to the brim with every image you'll ever need (and more). But we know it's important to find the right image quickly.

To help, we've provided three new sort buttons which will shuffle your search results.

New – Images sorted by date of upload so you can easily see all our new content.

Relevant – Images sorted by relevancy to your keywords. We would recommend this sort for editorial researchers.

Creative – Images sorted by creativity. This sort includes images handpicked for their wow factor and those we know our customers like - selected through an analysis of customer data.

There are some useful tricks of the trade which might help too:

• To narrow results, group a phrase or words together using quotation marks, e.g. ‘Golden Gate Bridge’.
• Try a Boolean search and use "OR", "AND", or "NOT" within a search to include or exclude keywords, e.g. London NOT bus.
• Use brackets to form search strings and set apart different subjects, e.g. for two people hiking use (2 or two or pair) (man or male) (woman or female) (hiking or trekking or rambling).

There might be occasions when you need additional help or don't have the time to carry out your own research.

For key accounts we provide a free super fast picture research service - talk to your account manager if this applies to you.

For others we've put together a list of some well-known freelancers and organizations who can do your research for you. You will need to contact them directly to discuss your brief and organise payment.
