The V-E SEO contest started on January 15th so there were bazillions of pages/images related to V-E. However, it wasn't until today that the first first v7ndotcom elursrebmem images showed up in Google. As noted there, MSN and Yahoo ain't doing image refreshes any quicker. I mentioned this in the V-E thread, but thought I'd post here since I think of generic interest as a number of people are interested in Google images results.
I've begun to see some Google image referrals from files dating back to December of last year, but nothing for 2006. As one of my sites is image heavy, an Image update by Google would no doubt result in a sudden jump in traffic. Nothing as of yet...
