image search (projects)

just an idea – I think it would be a good feature to implement to show images when searching through projects.

example: I just searched for coffee tables as I’m trying to come up with a design that will work for me. I wanted to see what’s out there, so I searched “coffee tables” in the search bar no top of LJ page, then clicked “projects” to filter it down and see only projects. what I got was a list of several pages with links to projects. but I had to click each link to see the actual coffee table. this is tedious, and somewhat non productive when you’re trying to find something.

I think doing a photo-gallery view for search results in projects might be a good thing in this case. I ended up dropping my search on LJ and did a google search – then clicked “images”. I would however like to do the same for LJ which is all woodworking related.
