Yahoo Image Search Adds Search Features

Amit Agarwal reports Yahoo Image Search has added some additional search filters and options. I personally do not see these options when I access Yahoo Image Search, but Amit posted screen captures.

The options include the ability to filter by sizes include wallpaper, large, small or even a custom size. You can select black & white and or color, you can select photo or graphic and you can restrict the search to Flickr only or not from Flickr.

In related news, Google has exposed additional search options such as the faces feature we covered a while back.

Postscript: Yahoo told me this is a limited test, a Yahoo spokesperson told me:

This is part of ongoing tests to identify how we can make search even more relevant and deliver the best possible online user experience.
