>Today we're launching some changes on Google Images to help connect users and useful websites. This will include removing the View Image button. The Visit button remains, so users can see images in the context of the webpages they're on.

>The Search by Image button is also being removed. Reverse image search *still works* through the way most people use it, from the search bar of Google Images.

>For those asking, yes, these changes came about in part due to our settlement with Getty Images this week (see also https://www.theverge.com/2018/2/15/17017864/google-removes-view-image-button-from-search-results …). They are designed to strike a balance between serving user needs and publisher concerns, both stakeholders we value.

>Ultimately, Google Images is a way for people to discover information in cases where browsing images is a better experience than text. Having a single button that takes people to actionable information about the image is good for users, web publishers and copyright holders.

There is no design-oriented excuse for the removal of View Image. There are only corporate moneyline excuses.

This is a garbage change.

Same as EVERYTHING else that becomes the industry standard or big enough to not care. They have to stop making changes for the positive because they create so much gravity that they spend 100% of the time dodging bullets and just trying to avoid all the controversy that gets sucked into them.

because when a company grows too fast it fucks up the ratio of actual competent people to useless idiots and since there are way too many idiots around doing nothing and since the competent people get overworked to hell the absolute worst people end up promoted to managment and then they use that position to ensure nobody threatens their power and they get other people into managment who are loyal to them because when you cant actually bring amything to the company you are going to be desperate to have as much power as you can.
Then competent people eventually get fed up and leave or get fired for beiing too competent or because the company is downsizing and they where too busy to suck up to someone
Thats why all big companies are shit

You're probably trying to open up the image, when its thumbnail hasnt even finished loading.

Once it's finished, you can open it up in a new tab with the normal resolution.
