Yahoo announced they have enhanced their image previews. Virtually all search engines show you a preview of the image in a framed page set, when you click from the search results on a specific image. Yahoo has taken this one step forward by enhancing that preview page.

Google does something similar, in that they show a preview with a search box, but Google does not show additional images, nor search suggestions in the frame window. Live Search handles it slightly differently, by showing other images on the left hand side and the search box at the top, while displaying the image source in the middle right frame.
