[Clipart] search problems

Problem with the search on openclipart.org.

It is almost impossible to search for a piece of clipart on the website, because the search seems not to work correctly.

For example try to search for the word "eyes". Nothing.
Now try the same with the word "eye". 2 files... quite poor results, when there are more clip art with this keywords (personally I submitted a few with those keywords).
When you input "ey", it doesn't find anything (should normally find anyting beginning with these 2 letters, and among them the 2 files found previously with the word "eye").

But now try to put 3 words at a time (for example "eyes eyes eyes"). It then shows all the content of the library and doesn't seem to somehow react to the keywords.

Are there plans to redesign the website? Because lots of usability things have to be improved. (not only search)

Thanks,

Mo.
