What the hell have they done to Google images?????

It worked perfectly before, it's a total PITA now - barely usable

What's not to like? On a computer with a scroll wheel it's great!

I totally agree, I wish they'd stop messing around with it. Same goes for eBay.

Is it not exactly the same as before only with some more options on the left? It looks the same to me, maybe I should pay more attention

Stott.....
Exactly what I was thinking......

I have just 'google imaged' some random stuff after reading Nicks post and see very little difference apart from the options on the left....it all worked perfectly fine for me .....

Maybe it's my laptop doesn't like it then - will have to try another puter.

For me it seems very slow in loading the images and then when you select an image if arses about opeing it in overlayed on the page it's from - I prefered the old set-up where it showed the image top left and the page below so you could simply go direct to the image only.

Last night my daughter said to me 'you can't teach an old dog new tricks'!
Now this.
I still say it's not progress, if it ain't broke...

Yeah , I wish Ebay in particular would stock fiddling with format, Do'nt like Google Instant either, although I realize you can turn it off , I'd rather have the option turn it on.!!!!

Just tried it again and it works normal for me, when I click an image it opens the page with a thumbnail in the top left and I can click on the "see full size image" link and it opens the pic bigger.

Maybe it's the PC OS you have not liking some change to the code or summin.

This laptop I'm on is relatively new and lightening quick, yet it doesn't like Halfords website or Ebay anymore!?!?? They go slow on it
