Everytime I do a search..........it only brings up about 5 cakes......I'm trying to look for a specific type of cake, but.........I need to see more than 5 pictures.

Any ideas??

TIA!

What are you searching for? And are you using the search bar on the right side or going to the gallery and then clicking the 'search' tab?

I've searched using both methods you stated.

I'm searching for the princess tiara cakes.......where they put the tiara & the wand on top of the cake.....I pretty much get fondant tiaras or disney princess' as my results.

Hmm, well searching for just 'tiara' yields 7 pages of results. Do any of these fit what you need?

Sometimes the less specific you are the more results you'll get when you search. The more specific you are, the more you limit the results.

if you click on search in the gallery and type "pillow," a bunch of pillow cakes with tiaras come up. i have a cake with a tiara and wand in my photos too. but, there are a lot of prettier ones in the gallery. not sure if they have magic wands too....

i am having the same problem ... I put in a seach and only the first five come up, then when I click on "veiw more photos" the whole gallery comes up. I thought it was a "bug" but if others are getting 7 pages of pics then I am doing something wrong!!

This happens to me when I search for pictures using the bar at the right. Try clicking on the 'Gallery' tab at the top, then clicking 'Search' in the pink bar. I get better results this way. icon_smile.gif
