Google Images!

Google Images! is a lightweight Yahoo! gadget designed to help you search for images on Google directly from your desktop, as well as download them.
It sports a clean and straightforward interface that allows you to set up the entire process with minimum effort.
The gadget comes packed with several configuration settings of its own, which give users the possibility to specify the image size (small, medium, large, or any size), filter the results by file types (JPG, GIF, PNG, or any file type), as well as look only for grayscale, black and white, or full-colored pictures.
What’s more, you can enable or disable the safe searching mode, which filters the content of images, include or exclude similar photos, as well as limit the number of pictures to be displayed to a user-defined value.
Other notable features bundles in this utility allow you to specify the minimum and maximum image width and height, select the time delay for the retrieval process, choose the saving directory where the downloaded files are stored, as well as enable the automatic downloading mode.
Google Images! lets you pick the minimum and maximum number or previewed thumbnails, select the maximum thumbnail size, as well as set the background color and opacity.
Other options supported by the Yahoo! Widget Engine enable you to make the gadget remain on top of other utilities, ignore all mouse events, prevent the panel from being dragged, hide the tool, as well set the transparency of widget.
During our testing we have noticed that Google Images! carries out a task quickly, displays very good image quality, and no errors showed up throughout the entire process. As it would be expected from such a small utility, it remains light on the system resources, so it doesn’t hamper computer performance, nor interfere with other programs’ functionality.
All things considered, Google Images! proves to be a reliable application that comes bundled with a handy set of parameters for helping you view and download images. Given its ease of use and intuitive layout, it is suitable for beginners and professionals alike.
