We present up-to-date metallicity-dependent temperature vs. colorcalibrations for main sequence and giant stars based on temperatures derivedwith the infrared flux method (IRFM). Seventeen colors in the followingphotometric systems: UBV, uvby, Vilnius, Geneva, RI(Cousins), DDO,Hipparcos-Tycho, and 2MASS, have been calibrated. The spectral types coveredrange from F0 to K5 (7000 K
