Search Google Images By Color

[Google image search says "Showing only pink images"]

Google Image search can now be restricted to return results of a specific color. While this isn't available as option in the advanced settings, you can use e.g. "imgcolor=green" or "imgcolor=blue,red" as parameter right in the URL. Setting the option to "green", for instance, shows images for your keyword which are mainly green. You can use the following form, too*:

*Note that as usual, you can use the site operator to restrict results to a specific domain, like site:coverbrowser.com (you can also combine a color search with a content type restriction like "line drawings").

[Thanks Zim! Hat tip to Ionut for "teal"!]
