I was just coming on here to post about this
The old Google image search api - long since deprecated - has now been discontinued, so all Google image searches by the script are failing. It's probably possible to switch it to the Google custom search api without too much difficulty, and indeed I'll give it a go myself over the weekend if I'm not beaten to it
(With the possible difficulty in that it needs an api key, which - if I am the first to make the changes and PR - I won't include for obvious reasons!)
Edit:- Or not... requires a search engine ID and an api key for 100 queries a day, which obviously wouldn't be anywhere near enough for this script, and would likely be too much to ask each user who wants it to sign up for + enter details into the script (and probably against the TOS too).
