Increase Maximum Results (per search engine) Beyond 3000?
Hi, are there plans to raise this number in the future? To at least 100,000? 3000 can be pretty limiting and tedious for wide search scope. And/or, is there some way to manually adjust this number, through something such as editing a file with a text editor? Thanks.

No, there is no way to adjust that number anywhere. Plus, do they really provide relevant results beyond the first 300-500 images?

Thanks for the fast response. For some queries with more general/broader search terms, it can definitely be helpful. Such as 'nature scenery', '(funny) cats', etc. Would definitely make spending money on it make notably more sense to me. Just got the free trial the other day, and other than this one aspect, it seems pretty good.
Also, on searches with 'exploration depth limit', this seems to be behaving differently than I anticipated. I figured it would follow all links on the initial page, where each link from the initial page would then be depth 2, and then every link on every depth 2 page would then be depth 3, etc. I remember software from many years ago that functioned like this. It would (almost) certainly add a very large number of images very quickly, but this can be useful, including in machine learning situations - as long as it's a toggleable/configurable option. If it doesn't already exist, and I haven't overlooked it, it would be useful to be able to configure the software to follow only 'link depth' links containing certain characters/strings in the link text and/or link URL. As well as utilizing HTML alt image tags for various download/link following criteria/behavior. With also the option of with which level of link depth to start applying this criteria. Thanks!

The exploration depth limit is available in the projects where you specify the actual URL, not the search phrase:
