select image by color

[wouter]

hey hi....

can any of u guys point me in the direction of a "select all images with
this color" script?

Like what they use @ istockphoto.com , where u get a pallette of colors
and click the desired color, after wich a selection of images with the
clicked color as dominant shows up.

You don't want to do this on the fly! You have to add up all of the pixels
in each image to figure an average That's computationally intensivee. You
need to write a script in some more suitable language, and store the
results in a database or flat file somewhere.
