Google's new image search sucks the suxors. This will do more to promote crap virus sites than any single thing I can think of in over a decade.

As already discussed, there are add-ons for FF and Chrome to restore the button. Personally, I find Bing Images much better than Google anyway.

I couldn't tell from your title misspelling whether you meant "virtues" or "viruses". Or did you mean both?

Edit: I swear on some networks the only search engines I can get to work is Yandex.

Okay, got the extensions. It amuses me that there is one for Chrome. How long before Getty starts whining again?

Yeah, I have to click the image, go to the home page, rip off the image, and reupload it to imgur. Google is a cluster fuck of epic proportions.

It's like how a company takes a good solid working site and some idiot gets creative and says, "hey, lets do this and that to the site."

Next thing you know the site is a cluster fuck of java script nonsense and crap.

Just right click the image in the search area and open in new tab and it works.

This seems to be a big trend in software now days, removing features. Microsoft has been doing it for a long time too. Whatever they are trying to accomplish with this trend, they need to stop it. Change for the sake of change is retarded. I usually use Duckduckgo but their image search is not as good as Googles' was in terms of the results you get, so I'd sometimes use Google too.

I discovered, as someone else here mentions, that if you right click the image and select "View Image" you should be able to get its link. This is in Pale Moon or another Firefox variant.
