During the trial period you should be able to see the full version of any image you like. Mike and Julia - Thanks for the nice comments. We still have a long way to go, so when you come across things you think could be better, please let us know. Just a note, as long as I'm posting, we did find a couple of interesting bugs in the new search results page, one that is slowing things down a bit and another than makes it so that all the information isn't showing up for some images. We're working on those and hope to have them fixed soon. Linda – It sounds like there is a problem with your trial.

I've only been using it for a few minutes, but it is about 1000% better than your current search capability. Thanks so much. I love it!

The number of records returned was too large. Your new advanced search is just what he needed. Thanks!

How can you help test a site if you are unable to enlarge your view enough to see if this is the person for whom you are looking? I belonged to this site for a while, but did not benefit from it at the time. I was interested in seeing what changes might have taken place, and was unable to make that determination by going into the "test" site? Linda This “free” trial is a “come-on”.
