John, perhaps it is the inquiring mind that is looking for the word root, the possible access to a pun, whatever. This one is a clunker, is all. As I mentioned above, when I scanned a page, all it seemed to do was trigger a dyslexic reaction, I simply couldn't read the page.

I use google to search images frequently. My results usually include a mix of image links with the name I'm looking for, i.e. "Rudbeckia" will bring me links to the flower image that has the name "rudbeckia.jpg" and there will be pages in which "rudbeckia" is part of the text. Either/and results. I think it must be doing some true image searching, Amos, because on a page with the word "rudbeckia" in the text, the one image it is liable to land on in the thumbnail linking to the page is the image I was looking for, as distinct from all other flower images also on that given page.
