A method and system for conducting image search comprising: searching a first database to locate a set of pertinent images, iteratively performing the following operations for each image in the set of pertinent images: (a) extracting the histogram of red green and blue colors (RGB colors) from a given image; (b) distilling the extracted RGB colors down to create a reduced color palette for the given image; (c) segmenting the extracted RGB colors into a set of segments representing distinct parts of the color spectrum; (d) selecting a subset of segments to assemble a color palette for the given image; and (e) updating the assembled color palette and the customer behavior score for the given image in the first database; and generating a display of suggested color palettes for the search query.
