Have you checked out the new and improved Image Hunter yet?!?! If not, you should!
Listening to the feedback we received on improving imagery search engines, the new version of Image Hunter features a major overhaul to the user interface as well as to the backend architecture. Image Hunter Version 2 is built on open-source technology so now it works on all computers, not just on Windows machines. We slimmed down the user interface to make it easier to find the imagery filters and other available tools. All things said, we really think you will enjoy your browsing experience with Image Hunter (Version 2).
Key January 2015 Improvements
During December and January, we have been busy working on a new and improved user interface (GUI) for Image Hunter. The new GUI is set to be launched in February and will featured improved search filters, quicker search times and a new Edit Polygon feature. We are excited to release the improved GUI in February and look forward to any feedback you might have about it!
