Google Image Search Changes

What the blooming heck!?

I'm thinking we all use Google Image Search to find composite elements.  The usual first step being to click on Tools and change the Size to Large

But when that bought up pages of watermarked stock images which were still not large enough, you clicked on Size again, and scrolled on down to the Larger than... options.  We'll that seems to have gone.

Fortunately, we can still use Google Advanced Image Search but it's initial step is a clunky form to fill in which I'm thinking is going to significantly slow the process down.

The old options are there under Image Size.  I set Larger than 6Mp for this.

My worry was that when you inevitably wanted to change the search parameters, it would revert to default options, but thankfully, and from a very quick test, it appears to be remembering the size you set in the Advanced form.

I guess we'll get used to it, and that we'll need an easy access Advanced Search button in our browsers, but I'd have referred to have kept things as they were.

Do you have a better image search tool than Google?

Didn't Google do some experimental tinkering with image search some time back, that was visible to some users, but not to others?
