Creative Commons was released officially a new search engine. The service CCSearch allows users to search for free images under a Creative Commons license. According to the official announcement, more than 300 million images have already been indexed. So there's a good chance you'll find one you like and want to use.
In February 2017, Creative Commons started developing a new engine searchς. Η προηγούμενη μηχανή αναζήτησης εμφάνιζε στα αποτελέσματα συνδέσμους σε άλλες υπηρεσίες, όπως τις Google Images, Flickr, and Pixabay.
This signalthat it wasn't really a search engine, but collected links from other search engines.
Its new search engine Creative Commons designed to be a simpler but more advanced search engine.
However, the indexing of 300 millions of images from across the internet was a big project, so CC Search spent more than two years in beta.
So now Creative Commons has officially launched the CC Search service, as a final version. CC Search offers a simple yet effective way to search through the entire archive of the Commons. This consists of the 300 million images we mentioned above in 19 collections.
In accordance with Blog by Creative Commons, when you perform a search using the CC Search service, you filter the images "taken from open APIs and from the shared crawl dataset".
Creative Commons' new search makes things much simpler. Just look for a word or phrase and you'll see images that the Creative Commons algorithm thinks fit for the search term. You will instantly see the source of the images and their permission from Creative Commons.
If you want to filter the results, click the Filter button. You can filter for images for "Commercial Use" or "Modify or Customize" licenses.
You can also narrow your search to specific CC licenses, narrow your search to specific image providers, or search for a creator.
