@Garry: do you have any SVG examples yet?
@Jonathan: the plan is to convert, review and hand correct rather than
auto convert as that sometimes gives suboptimal results. For now you
could use one of the many auto convert tools.

Whoops I forgot something, as well as being logged in you need to
accept the license for an image before you can grab it. In the User
Links near the top click 'new licenses' which is starred, and accept
the CC licence. There is a subtle clue as the border for the icons are
red if you have to accepted the licence, green if you have. It's hard
to see and really needs to go in the title as well I guess.

A full review of accessibility is scheduled as this is still at the beta stage.
Do you have any suggestions for such a big grid, apart from
tab/shift-tab for next/prev. What do you do in peepo? I guess I'll go
look at the page source.

Can you expand a bit on what you have in mind?
The text search looks in the image name and any image tags.
