ImageSearch really bugs me... I can never bring up or find anything on it. Everyone keeps on saying "use ImageSearch I usedImageSearch" but... I don't have the talent required to do so. :oops: I somtimes spend hourse in ImageSearch, and can never find anything.
Does anyone have some good ImageSearch tips? Many times people have said it works wonders, that it's their best friend, or whatever... but it seems the more I narrow down my ImageSearch, thethe harder it is to find what I'm looking for.

so...
1. what is the best way to use ImageSearch and
2. Am I the only one, or does ImageSearch just not like me? T_T

Ohh...I just decided to use search myself, and..it seems pretty simple. Except, when I type in something, it usually comes up with around 20 matches :?

ImageSearch comes up with a bunch of things that are completely irrelevent.

Thanks mastertingoat, I got it. I won't use words like "the" or "and" anymore. *sweatdrop*

Also--I always use the "display as posts" button on the bottom left. You probably knew that, but it took me a surprisingly long time to figure it out. So maybe someone'd like to hear it :)

Search > you and me.

You're probably using very common words in your search. For example, go to Google and type in a query with "are" in it.

See how it says
Google wrote:"are" is a very common word and was not included in your search.
?

You shouldn't put words like that in your query on this site either, especially because it doesn't filter words like that.

I'm sure you already know this, but specify the forum you want. If I want info on Ann in HM:SS I don't want the search to include all the stuff that's going to pop up in the HM4 and HM5 forums.
