I can't determine the best forum to put this in, so here goes:

The question is, "How do I search for larger images in Bing?" I tried searching in the Bing community, but the most relevant hit is from 2014, so the answer to that question today is different than the one provided there; it is physically impossible to follow those directions because the Bing Images of 2014 is too different from the Bing of today—the answer given is wrong. Bing Image search is not intuitive; I cannot find the search options that I need, my specific need being that I want to be able to click on an image and finder larger sizes of it. I can't do it. I used to be able to use Google Images to do this, but Google images began returning zero results for all such image searches yesterday, and it's really frustrating and angering me that Bing doesn't seem to provide this kind of image search, and that I cannot set specific search parameters. Now I have no image search engine that does this. Bing never worked well enough to suit me, and now Google has gone and broken itself.

When right-clicking an image to Save as such as in the Funny Picture section of this forum one will see a file name of whatever or simply image.png, whatever the poster of the image names it. I'd think to get a larger version of the image one would have to go to the source that the poster got it from. Enlarging saved image files may result in pixelation making it useless.

I had issues with Google search yesterday in other areas. I'd give it a shot again and see if it is working.
