Users of leading blogging platform WordPress can now use GueWolke’s microstock photo plugin to search, purchase and insert iStockphoto images into their posts or Web pages from inside the WordPress interface.
The plugin uses WordPress tags from blog posts to search and suggest matching images from the iStock database. Images are licensed under the same terms as those procured through the iStock Web site.
GuteWolke and the plugin were developed by Lee Torrens of Microstock Diaries and German entrepreneur Amos Struck. It is compatible with WordPress 3.0, and its users also get the benefit of the iStock referral program, which provides a potential source of revenue.
