Blend Images Launches New Website

Posted on 8/9/2016 by Jim Pickerell | Printable Version | Comments (0)

Blend Images, the world's leading multicultural stock photography agency, has recently announced the launch of a new website with a focus on world-class curated royalty free imagery and motion clips. The new Blendimages.com offers an improved user interface, a simplified pricing model, large image previews, and is the only place to search the entire Blend Images collection.

The website's visually-driven design is stunning and displays images in a compelling gallery-like format. More than just beautiful, the site has a new easy to use search-filter system that will help visitors find the right images quickly and efficiently. The new "boards" feature allows for drag and drop sorting as well as easy collaboration with colleagues and clients.

Along with more simplified pricing, the new live chat feature makes finding and licensing imagery much easier than before. Rights-managed image pricing is now easy to understand with just four commercial bundles and two editorial/publishing bundles to choose from. Royalty-free pricing starts at just $10.00 through Blend Image's value collection - Boost.
    (The Boost collection is a group of images that have been less popular with buyers over time, but are still very high quality. They provide an option for the high volume buyer, or just those with smaller budgets. When searching the RF collection Boost images can be found by clicking on Show Filters, License Type, Boost and then Apply Filters.)
Premium royalty-free images can be licensed for as little as $50.00 per image. Custom enterprise pricing is available for those who are setting up corporate accounts or have high volume image licensing requirements.



"We are dedicated to providing high-quality imagery and a top-notch customer experience to creatives so we designed a website with clients' needs in mind," said Rick Leckrone, CEO of Blend Images. "We created a visually-driven website that showcases our curated collection, a refined, easy to navigate search to access our high quality content quickly, and live chat to further enhance our renowned customer service experience."

Users can check out the new and improved website as well as the new Blend Motion Collection now at blendimages.com.
