I start to scroll down through Google'e results and it displays the first three rows and then stops with just grey boxes in place of the images. I twiddle my thumbs for about 10 seconds and then the next three rows appear. I repeat until thoroughly annoyed and frustrated. With Bing I can scroll smoothly down through the results without having to wait for each batch to appear. Karen But Neil, Google doesn’t scroll through more images faster than Bing.

I really wish there was a way to opt for the old version of google image search, the one that actually worked correctly and gave me the results i wanted instead of this mess.

I want to scroll through as many pictures as quickly as I can, so function wins over form. Also, I like the way you get an info pop-up on the search results, and the image pop-up on the website. Makes it all the easier to acquire the image (if licence permits of course). Neil Sorry to disagree with you Karen, but for me it is definitely Google.
