iStockphoto, an image and video market that Website Magazine periodically utilizes for its print publication, this morning announced some impressive new search capabilities and the ability to download videos in .wmv and .mp4 formats.

iStock's search functions are now integrated into a single AJAX search bar, allowing searches for different file types, sizes, and prices for users to find photos, illustrations, and videos.

Members can also benefit from the site's internal marketplace trends and check the highest-rates files within any date range (across various file types), see the most-download files for a specific perdio of time, track contributors that are on the rise and see the top-rated design submissions from the community.

“Our community continues to grow at a remarkable pace – our challenge is to stay on top of what clients from all over the world need,” said Bruce Livingstone, CEO of iStockphoto. “On the video side, we are finding more customers want a simple way to drop video clips into their PowerPoint presentations – these additional formats will help the collection meet their evolving needs.”
