Google Image Search has now added more advanced search features to fine tune to result. Seems to be inspired from Live Search from Microsoft, Google tries to keep things simple. A usual search to any images will include images of all types ranging from handmade cartoons, logos, banners, photographs etc. What we can do now with Google Advanced Image Search is that we can specify what type of image we want to see in the result. That is , now we can specify to show only photographs which will show a page that has only photographs ( The success of the result depends on query nature . But often 95% of the images will be as we ordered ).

Google now offers following categories .

News, Faces and Photo content are what we can specify. Lets try a simple image search on “Hollywood”.

This is the Normal Search Result :

Select “Faces” from Content Types and search again. The result will be more like this :

 Now we got more celebrities (or Faces ) than the normal search . This way we can customize the result for Photographs only or New related only . As GoogleSystem says , Windows live Image search has more features. But we can expect for more from google as it is Google!
