Abstract
Gives an overview of image search engines on the Web. They work by: looking for graphics files; looking for a caption; looking for Web sites whose titles indicate the presence of picturres on a certain subject; or employing human intervention. Describes the image search capabilities of: AltaVista; Amazing Picture Machine (Http://www.ncrtec.org/picture.htm); HotBot; ImageSurfer (http://ipix.yahoo.com); Lycos; Web Clip Art Search Engine and WebSEEK. The search engines employing human intervention provide the best results
