Searching

Tip 1: Start Broad, then Narrow.

Think of the most simplistic keywords to describe exactly what you are looking for. If you still don't see what you quest, then think of alternate words to describe the subject matter.

Here is an example for searching for Images: Enter without quotes, family to find images relating to all activities and members of a family. Enter joint family to find subjects like mother and daughter in law, large family, extended family, etc. Partial word searches are not supported in the basic search (i.e. entering man to find fireman, manager, or woman will not work). So, be specific when you can.


Tip 2: Searching for Singular and Plural are the same.

Searching for singular words (like mother) will produce the same results as searching for plural words (like mothers).


Tip 3: Keywords or Numbers.

You can search by keyword or image number in the same area.


Tip 4: Filter Your Search.

You can choose how many images/per page you would like to preview by selecting the "RESULTS/PAGE:" select box. LIGHT BOX FEATURES
