Search query is a required field

• optional: click Select Person to select one of predefined celebrities. Combines well with descriptive search query
• optional: set other rules, like the number of people in pictures, type of composition etc

4. click Download Images to start the download process

The download can take a while, and will go for as long as there are pictures to be downloaded, or until it reaches optional limit (if you set it) for number of pictures.

it is possible some pictures will not load and display properly in the preview while downloading, but they will still be properly downloaded and when you check them they will be OK
