Possible to search for embedded or attached photos?

Hi Adam,

I don't know if this has been asked or even if it's possible.

Is it possible to search a thread for posts with either embedded or attached photos only?

. . .and is it possible to search for a particular member's posts with embedded or attached photos only?

It occurred to me that this would be useful to some. There are quite a few forums and threads where there are an extreme number of posts where members post samples, but there are a lot of text only comments. The point of many of these threads is to display examples from either a body or particular lenses, and I'd like it if I could cut out the comments and OT paths that are all too common -- not that they're necessarily bad, but they can distract from the viewing of the examples.

If we could see all of the posts where a member embedded or attached pics, it would allow us to see all of the posted pics from that member since many don't establish a gallery.

Just an idea. . . nothing really important

Scott

If you search for the string [img] and type in a username on the advanced search page, you will only get posts that contain embedded photos.

We also have a sample photo search if you're on the lookout for samples with a specific camera or lens combo:

Hi Adam,

Thanks! Not quite the same, but good enough for some purposes.
