That is not possible. You could use the Google/Yahoo "site:" search for images, however, it is not very good.

You can, however, browse through forums and spot threads that has pictures by looking for the

icon. Click on that icon and you will get a list of all attached imaged in the thread.

Not exactly what you were looking for, but hope it helps.

How would you propose to create search fields and data based on only the image ??

Images dont have the meta data or info there to search them.. Google etc only goes by image name and relevant text.

I would be very easy to implement. Just need to search for attachments with a *.jpg or *.gif extention. Or use the

Code:

[IMG][/IMG]

tags in the thread. But that would be up to the vBulletin guys to do the work.

The question wasn't that clever. Just search for a thread that has images. Not for images with certain content.

I took the OP to mean looking for Trip Reports (perhaps with pictures of lubbly ladies) which no search function is going to help him to locate at this stage of his time on the Forum.

Ohh you mean search for any thread that contains images ??

Yes agreed an attachment search would be possible.. And as you say also using linked IMG tags..

I thought he wanted to search images of "girls" or "beach" etc..

Also should point out there are no threads with images only.. have to have a min amount of text to post a new thread or reply.. Tho to have just threads with an image in is as you say doable.
