| Google image game ****56K warning **** If there are numerous images on the page, load times for Dial-up users may be slower. ******************* Time for a new game perhaps? The last 'images' topic I tried proved popular for a brief while, but it wasn't designed to be ongoing. How about this one? Pick a ridiculous situation. Post a picture found with Google image search that illustrates it. Pick the topic for the next person to do. I'll start it off with "Dog wearing sunglasses" http://www.theorientalcaravan.com/im...shopwindow.JPG You make the image appear by displaying it full size from your Google results, right-clicking it and choosing 'Properties', and copy/paste the address shown for the image into the dialogue box you get from the 'Insert image' button above the Post entry/edit box. (You'll need to use the 'Reply' function, not the 'Quick reply' or you won't get the Image Insert button) Next picture: "Banana on holidays" Edit: In retrospect, it's apparent that I've not explained the 'intent' of the game fully. Simply put, the next image merely needs to 'fit' with what's been asked for. You're not restricted to only using the term asked for as a Google search criteria. Use lateral thinking and creative use of Search Criteria to 'find' an image which illustrates the term requested, using Google Image Search. Sometimes, simpling using the request as a Search criteria will bring an immediate result. But if the term doesn't generate a Google 'hit', it's time to exercise your search skills! Sometimes, being creative might even generate a better image to use! For example, if the next topic for an image was "The Mouse that Roared", then entering that as a search criteria would certainly generate images from movie sites and such, but using 'angry mouse' as your search criteria might just generate an image which 'fits' much better! Have fun with it, and be creative in your topic suggestions as well! :D (And by the way, that "56K warning" is just a courtesy to dial-up users, it's not a size restriction ;) ) |

| Re: Google image game :( either Google's broke, or there've never been an image related to prancing snakes... :( Way to ruin the fun, oalee! ;) NEXT PICTURE! |
| ||
| Re: Google image game Nope, not ruined! A bit of lateral thought is all that's needed :D Prancing snakes: http://165.221.52.2/fire2001/frye/ph...ake-dance1.jpg Next one: "A cat riding a dog" (Might need to get a bit creative with your Google search terms for that one too!) |
| ||
| Re: Google image game I'm sorry to interrupt your game everyone. However, I'm a bit confused. If the next picture is "prancing snakes" doesn't that mean that you have to do a google images search for "prancing snakes" and then choose your favorite picture among the results? According to Catweazle, I'm confused what he means by getting creative with your Google search terms? And how did you find that picture, Catweazle? Again, I apologize for interrupting. I just want to be straight on the rules so I can join in. |

| Re: Google image game Simply put, Dani, the next image needs to 'fit' with what's been asked for. Sometimes, simpling using the request as a Search criteria will bring an immediate result. But if the term doesn't generate a Google 'hit', it's time to exercise your search skills! For 'prancing snakes', which didn't generate a single 'hit', I had to get creative, and use search criteria which would generate a suitable image. 'Dancing' found me an image of snakes rearing up and strutting their stuff - "Prancing"! Now see how well you can use search criteria to generate an image of a Cat 'riding a dog'! :D Edit: It's not 'cheating' by the way. The game is all about using Searches well ;) |
