The New Google Images Suck - How To Bring Back Old
Posted: Wed Nov 03, 2010 6:17 pm
You know how they changed it recently and it sucks hardcore?
Well they have this check for IE and it shows the old image search style under IE.
A quick fix in firefox is to change your user agent string to just say MSIE and you get your old google images back!
To change your useragent type in "about:config" do a search for "useragent" and then replace general.useragent.extra.firefox's value with "MSIE".
I'm not sure if this may cause issues with other sites though. IE tends to follow their own standards instead of W3C so lot of sites need to check for IE to display things differently.
