aelfheah Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Why have [new style] Google images suddenly limited their search display (any topic) to about 20 pics- even though the results say the usual huge number? Loads of net users are complaining, despite the Google people saying to delete cookies etc etc etc, which we've all done? Is Google on it's way out technically?

HeadingNorth Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 I know their updated privacy policy came into effect today. I imagine that bringing it into effect meant changing some code in the search engine. Is it possible that they've accidentally fouled something up? (I'm not a coder.)

VideoPro Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Firefox extension to bring the old GIS look back: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/old-google-image-search/ Or simply add &sout=1 to the end of the search URL. Example: http://images.google.com/images?q=puppy ...would become: http://images.google.com/images?q=puppy&sout=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resident Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Mine hasn't changed. I've just done a random image search and 38 pages were returned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aelfheah Posted March 2, 2012 Author Share Posted March 2, 2012 Heading- They must have! Videopro- that worked! Thanks. I don't know why this error is angering thousands, but it's a good work around for now!! And the FF add-on! Resident- You're lucky, mine started the other day!
