Description
-----------

Meta Image Search is a software designed to find images
using keywords. The program uses some search engines to collect
data. The results is shown in easy-to-use interface, and may be
saved for later use.

During search Meta Images Search shows the number of total
images found for each server and number of downloaded images
at the moment. Automatical refresh feature allows you to see
downloading images in real time.

The results is shown in the table form, which can be customized
in the program setting. The results contain additional
information about images, such as dimension, size, format, etc.

Hope you will find Meta Image Search helpful, and will enjoy
using it.


Installation and uninstallation
-------------------------------

Important! If you've got Meta Image Search not from our web page, 
but from the other source (magazine CD or some software library),
please visit our home page -- you'll probably find the later
version; usually, we release the updates about once a month.

To install Meta Image Search, just run the "setup.exe" and follow the
instructions. You'll need to select the target directory
and the components to install.

Please note that uninstall program (which removes all Meta Image Search
files from your computer -- if you'll decide to do that) executes
a few external programs; that can take up to a few minutes -- so
please be patient.
