GNU Image-Finding Tool
GNU Image-Finding Tool (GIFT) is a Content-Based Image Retrieval System (CBIRS). It enables Query By Example, giving you the opportunity to receive relevant feedback, thereby improving your query results. The program relies entirely on the content of the images to process queries, so there is no need to annotate all the images before querying the collection.

easy to setup, good results!
reading an article in c't (german it-mag), I gave GIFT a chance the other day. while I'm quite novice according linux, it was quite easy to install.
I fed the picture-database with about 1000 photographs of outdoour-advertisment-billboards, and, to my own surprise, the content-based queries did work to an enormous extent! the only down is the time it takes to create the picture-idnex/db - for this about 1000 pictures (very high resolution!) my p2-linuxbox needed about 6 hours...
but anyway, if you are interested in content-based search-engines for pictures, GIFT is definitley a MUST!
