ah Google: a big engine thing, arranges search, all very worthwhile and useful. But if you want to find something specific, something small (in a good way), something that doesn't have a website (the cool ones) how do you do it?
ilikeyours.com offers a platform for creative types - the thinkers of the world to advertise themselves, and their work. Think art, designs, products, shops, or your shoes for sale.... That's what we do.
When you upload pictures you get a little box to complete, in it you can add as much detail as you like, including links.
Everything that's in a caption is searchable.
So be specific, people search by keywords - so if you want you, or your business to be found, then add detail, lead people in.
So there, and its free, and its here:

Be part of it.

Growing a Cabbage
What is it like to grow a cabbage?
Boring probably. You plant the thing, watch it, avoid it, pull it out of the ground, put it in a bag, take it home and eat it. Then repeat the process.
And there horrible: its green for one, nothing that's nice is green - think peas.... and its disgusting to eat without any gravy (but if your mum puts the cabbage juice in the gravy you don't need to eat the cabbage)
What's this got to do with ilikeyours.com?
Nothing.
We're keen on art you know: body art and the type you hang from the wall or get painted onto your body. So if you have a tattoo, or your into art per se upload it to www.ilikeyours.com we have a unique rating system you see.....you can sell it as well, and advertise you and your work for free.
If this doesn't grab you how about a picture of you, or your auntie pat, the cat, the cabbage on the boil, a duck drowning, that stuff you put in your hair, or well anything....
What's this got to do with growing a cabbage?
Nothing.

About us.....
ilikeyours.com is about you, and what you like.
We offer a platform to showcase you, your work, what you represent, or what you want to sell.
We use a unique rating system to judge or assess all images. It’s called ilikeyours.
We don′t use the old 1-10 system. Like so many other rating sites. We find all that a bit dull.
Reminds us of school, you get all of your marks added up and at the end of the year, you get an average score, and you get 7.5 when you promised your mum you′d get 8. Like school, boring.
We like our name; ilikeyours.com, so we thought we′d use that to rate things, you have two choices, not ten, ilikeyours, or “idontlikeyours”.
We think it works better than the old 1-10, if you see someone who looks cool you don′t think “I′d rate them about a 7.44 recurring “….This isn′t ice skating or a boring dance show. It′s about liking and disliking. So we only need the two rating options.
What can we do for you?
Well, a lot, we can offer you a platform to showcase you, your work, your company, anything really. You can use the caption box to add links to other sites, phone numbers….anything that raises your profile.
All you need to do is pick a category that best fits what you do, or what you are uploading and get going….it’s very easy.
The search facility will pick up anything that you put as a caption, so if you want to be found under a general query, be specific.
Now, there are rules, not many. But there are rules. Please cast your eye to the bottom of the page where it says privacy policy and have a read. It′s there to protect you (and us); put simply don′t put pictures up of people who are under the age of 18, or anything that would make us blush either please (i.e. no pornographic material) it will simply be taken down. Please use the report button if you see anything untoward
Ok?
So go on, give it a try. Upload a picture; it′s very easy to do, see whether you get more “ilikeyours” or “idontlikeyours”. See it as an instant way to get feedback.
Oh and while you′re there rate some of the others, lets keep the wheels turning.
And like the best things in life, it′s completely free.
Have fun. Play Nicely. Tell your friends.
Let′s celebrate, let′s interact.
