Category Search
A category search presents the user with a list of different things to search for, in case that they do not know what exactly to search for.
A keyword search gives the user the option of looking up anything they want to type.
Multiple Method Search
When doing a keyword search, the user can search for multiple words separated by commas. If they want to find all the images that match either keyword, they can use the "all" method. If they want to find images that each use every specified keyword, they can use the "any" method. If they user is wants to do a keyword
search matching what they type exactly
they can use the "phrase" method.
Search results pages show thumbnails of the images found. Only a specified number of images appear on each page. The user can view other more pages of results if desired.
Enlarged View
If a user wants to enlarge an image, they can always click the thumbnail.
If a user finds an image they like, they can click the "add to selected images" button below it. This will add it to their list of images. When they are done searching they can click "send request for images" to send an automated email containing all the images selected to the library owner along with the user's personal information.
Every time someone searchers for something the engine makes note of it. The library owner can log in any time and see what has been searched for, when it was searched for, and how many matches the search returned.
If you want to see the actual search engine in action here are two
clients who are currently running goImage on their image libraries:
