I like to be able to create easy to read URLs and I want to know how to modify the google search URL so that the results return showing the _image_I cannot see how to open Google results on images tab only. I'd basically like to create a URL that reduces keystrokes or usage of the mouse. I'd also like it to be readable and easy to create. :-)

I can create a simple URL such as:

https://www.google.co.uk/#q=how%20to%20create%20google%20search%20url%20argument%20open%20images%20view%20only

Or more readable like in the question title above:

q=how+to+create+google+search+url+argument+open+images+view+only

But, is there a query string parameter that I can add so the results returned open on the image view as a first visible choice? I don't know how to do that with Google? :-(

Added bonus: Trying to open the results on this search! >.<

The parameter you need is tbm=isch (which I imagine stands for "image search").
