Doesn't work well for photos that I tried -- keeps coming up with -- rock winter stone etc. when I uploaded a cat. :eek: Not enough definition in my photos, I guess...

I uploaded about 10 or 12 images and I noticed that clear, well defined images with well recognizable subjects, actually came close to what they were.
Images with complex, textured backgrounds, regardless of the main subject, failed miserably.

Off course with each user tagging the image with the appropriate terms, it will make it easier for their system to do its magic.
