Well, it's already implemented with Fuzzy Search tool...

Look this example :

Gilles,

the link has a different approach then we have.
You can select many colors (boolean AND) and really get result with those color ranges.
It is much more precise then fuzzy search.
Somehow our fuzzy search is not able to detect colors well. If you paint a red blob, it also delivers grayscale images etc.

I like the idea in this link, maybe we can implement it with fuzzy search somehow.

yes, i know Fuzzy search. but it is not working so well as this one does.
Fuzzy seems more advanced and sophisticated and this one is gross and simple
(but works very well)
i need to play with Fuzzy allot to get it to find what i am looking for.
maybe it is just me, but it took me some time to "understand" it
and make it find what i need.
