That's a Chinese search engine.

I guess they're going to have to filter our political threads.

There ought to be a law that states the first images that come up in a Google search have to be 200 x 200.

I wanted to become a spider, but I don't feel like working that hard. Like, actually CREATING an avatar rather than just stealing one.... :roll:

That reminds me--in Little League, they pull team names out of a hat, and Mini-me's team pulled "Phillies". &*%@#$%

Steve says no way he's buying a Phillies hat for when he helps out during games....

Three days ago, she drew the sweetest picture of me holding her, with a heart next to it. I labelled it with the date and put it in the cabinet where I keep Rain Man's writings.

If I put it up, people would come kidnap her so they could have the most adorable little girl on the planet.


Then they'd give her back 15 minutes later when they realized she was also the most high-maintenance girl on the planet, but still....

I brought Sparky with me to an audition when he was just a tyke. I even had them take a picture of me with him. I was hoping our combined cuteness quotient would help in the never-ending quest for a happy card. Didn't work. --Bob

There's a drop-down control near the top of the image search window that lets you specify image size (All sizes, XL, L, M or S). Their help page doesn't know about the extra large size, but when only the other 3 existed, then Medium was larger than 150 x 150 and smaller than 500 x 500.
