Leonard and Bob,
I would suggest that you change the default condition for searches to "AND" instead of "OR". I have heard several people complain that the search didn't work for them, and I finally realized that the problem they were having was that the default "OR" for the keywords was resulting in either so many hits that it was useless, or it timed out. I had no problems, but I knew to click on "AND" first.

AND is the default for most if not all web search engines I know about, so it makes sense to make the default AND here, too.

It makes sense. Now I just have to find it. The problem is this program is written in a bunch of modules and the part that sets up the search parameters can be in one module but the default command may end up in another. It took a while to find the defaults to change for the pictures. But, yes, agree. I will see what I can do.
