Silvia Bluejay Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 I'm sorely disappointed that I only appear in the results with one of my worst ever photos of myself. On the other hand, there's one nice photo of Laurence Cottle at the Herts bash which comes from one of my blogs, and three pics of our gorgeous Ped modelling BC polos Quote
Happy Jack Posted March 26, 2015 Author Posted March 26, 2015 Yes, you have to ignore the initial batch of large photos and drop straight down to the avatars ... Quote
Silvia Bluejay Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) No avatars in my search results - it probably only works if you're constantly logged into Google Plus (which I'm not), so that the results take advantage of the temporary cache on your computer. You are probably seeing avatars of people you have interacted with here on BC in the last few days/weeks/months. Edited March 26, 2015 by bluejay Quote
BigRedX Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) You need to have the quotes around the phrase for it to work. Off the top of my head I recognised about 20 although I might not be able to put an exact user name to all of them. Edited March 26, 2015 by BigRedX Quote

[/quote] Still didn't work for me. I tried 'basschat avatar' as well, but this turns up a lot of men in baseball caps holding up fish. Quote
BigRedX Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Did you use double quotes like HJ posted? Didn't work for me either until I did. Quote

Didn't work for me either until I did. [/quote] Duh, no! I never use double quotes... hang on... I recognised twelve. Which is pretty poor given the amount of time I spend on here. But then my memory's not what it was. Plus, my memory's not what it was. Edited March 26, 2015 by discreet Quote

Coilte Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 It seems to only feature pictures of the "good" posters/contributors !! Quote

planer Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) Oooh, that's really not cool - I recognised far too many. edit - thankfully though, I did recognise my own... Edited March 26, 2015 by planer Quote

ezbass Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 There weren't that many on my search really (done with ""), but I got 11 of the ones displayed. I note that mine wasn't amongst Google's 'chosen few'. Quote
