I've just read the manpage, and I'm still trying to find some text
explaining the importance of the order of expression elements. I now sort-of
understand the syntax, but it's very unusual when I'm used to syntax like
"emerge --unmerge --pretend --verbose package".
Maybe something can be added under "Expressions" explaining exactly how find
interprets expressions.

ps. Why is "find -iname *-1*.jpg" invalid? I didn't explicitly indicate the
path to search so find assumes the working directory.
