Google's new Image Search feature is good for finding LJ icons

[flexagon]

As of last Thursday, you can specify the exact height and width of the image you're looking for in Google's Advanced Image Search. This is a great way to quickly find 100x100 images on any topic you might want

You'll get a more complete search of LJ icons (i.e. including the many icons that are smaller than 100x100) by simply doing your search without the size constraint, but with a more specific instruction of where to search, like this:

snowflake site:http://www.insanejournal.com/allpics.bml?*

The asterisk is a wildcard that tells it to search everyone's userpic pages for the word you're looking for.

That's interesting, thanks; I never knew the site keyword would work for specifications more fine-grained than the domain level.

You're welcome.

However, oops! I just noticed that I copied the wrong URL when replying to you. Obviously, for LJ (as opposed to IJ) it would be:

snowflake site:http://www.livejournal.com/allpics.bml?*

I use these types of searches all the time.
And to be clear to those below: I wouldn't use icons without the permission of and credit to the creator.

Oh wow. Never knew you could do that. Brilliant.

Have fun with it.
