not working w. SM2?


It works for me in 2.0.4 however...

The following has nothing to do with SM, but only with Google Images.
Google images have changed recently the way of showing images.
Now i am unable to find the link to adress directly one image found.

Did you have a clue/method ?

With the cursor over the image, right-click.  From the pull-down context
menu, select Properties.  The Element Properties window will have a
section "Image Properties", where you will see the URI of the image.


This is the location where we found the thumbnail, not the image source.

Per example, you type: hortensia in google image ant you examine the
first image ...This is:
hortensia.jpg
1280 × 960 - ... nestled in the beautiful countryside of the Blavet valley.
from: brittanygitesandcottages.com

When using "Properties" the URI of the image is:
http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTdoeRnIY0Z2JLHLtHELn0RBZIohYItknxrkK0GfRuk1FiPNEQ&t=1&usg=__FLsOUyAsd1YVjPgVbXUEOGwyGDo=

This is the tumbnail 259px * 194px ...

So.. this is not working, however ... i found the way !!!

Here it is:
  From the pull-down context menu, don't select Properties but select
"View selection source" - then in the text we can copy/paste:
http://www.brittanygitesandcottages.com/images/hortensia.jpg

Which is the direct link showing us the beautiful flower.

Thanks for the idea of "Right-Click" !!!


I did a Google search on images for "hortensia".  The result was a page
of 18 thumbnails.

I selected (left click) the first thumbnail and got a frames page.  In
the top frame (actually a base page and not a frame) is the same
thumbnail.  The bottom frame has the title "Welcome to Kerfec Gîtes".  I
selected (again left click) the thumbnail in the top frame and got a
very large image.

With my cursor over the large image, I right-clicked and selected
Properties from the pull-down menu.  The Element Properties popup had
one section:  Image Properties.  In that section was an item "Location"
with the URI
<http://www.brittanygitesandcottages.com/images/hortensia.jpg>.  Copying
that URI and pasting it into the address area for a new tab, I got the
same very large image.

Please note that, when you place your cursor over an element on a Web
page and then get the properties, you are getting the properties of that
element.  Thus, when I get the properties of the thumbnail on the frames
page (the page that also has "Welcome to Kerfec Gîtes"), the Element
Properties popup has two sections: Link Properties and Image Properties.
  The URI under Link Properties gives me the very large image; this is
correct because the thumbnail is a link to the very large image.  The
URI under Image Properties gives me the thumbnail; this is correct
because the Element Properties was generated for the thumbnail.  For the
very large image, the Element Properties popup had only the one Image
Properties section; the page did not contain a link.

Many thanks - more simple than my method.
