Google Images: faster, more reliable and lets the images do the talking
January 24, 2013
When you’re looking for images, chances are you want to check out more than just one. So we’ve redesigned
Google Images
to make it easier to move through a series of images -- it’s now faster, more reliable and lets the images do the talking.
Instead of sending you over to a whole new page to preview an image, you’ll see a preview of the image in your search results. Once you click on an image, you can quickly flip through the whole set of image previews using your keyboard. Your search results stay in the panel so you don’t lose track of what you were doing; if you want to go back to looking at other search results, you can just scroll down and pick up right where you left off. If you want to check out the website where the image is hosted, you can click on the photo or use the tools available.
The new design is rolling out worldwide over the next few days. Google Images has always been about providing you visual answers. We hope this update makes it easier and even a bit more fun to find the images you’re looking for.
