Abstract

In one example embodiment a system and method is illustrated to receive image data identifying a characteristic of a portion of a first image, the first image displayed as part of a Graphical User Interface (GUI). The system and method may also include generating a search request for a second image based upon the characteristic. Further, the system and method may include receiving an image search result including at least the second image, the second image displayed as part of an image array within the GUI. Moreover, the system and method may include augmenting the first image with the second image, based upon the characteristic, to create an augmented image.
