Tag Searching
Searching is largely based on tags, with a number of special keywords available that allow searching based on properties of the posts.
tag_nameReturns posts that are tagged with "tag_name".
tag_name other_tag_nameReturns posts that are tagged with "tag_name" and "other_tag_name".
Most tags and keywords can be prefaced with a negative sign (-) to indicate that you want to search for posts that do not match something.
-tag_nameReturns posts that are not tagged with "tagname".
-tag_name -other_tag_nameReturns posts that are not tagged with "tag_name" or "other_tag_name".
tag_name -other_tag_nameReturns posts that are tagged with "tag_name", but are not tagged with "other_tag_name".
Wildcard searches are possible as well using *.
tag*Returns posts that are tagged with "tag", "tags", "tagme", "tag_name", or anything else that starts with "tag".
*nameReturns posts that are tagged with "name", "tag_name", "other_tag_name" or anything else that ends with "name".
Comparing values (<, <=, >, >=, or =)
For example, you can use this to count tags.
tags=1Returns posts with exactly 1 tag.
tags>0Returns posts with 1 or more tags.
Searching by file size.
Supported suffixes are kb, mb, and gb. Uses multiples of 1024.
filesize=1Returns posts exactly 1 byte in size
filesize>100mbReturns posts greater than 100 megabytes in size.
Searching by date posted.
Date format is yyyy-mm-dd. Date posted includes time component, so = will not work unless the time is exact.
posted>=2019-07-19Returns posts posted on or after 2019-07-19.
Searching posts by ID.
id=1234Find the 1234th thing uploaded.
id>1234Find more recently posted things.
Post attributes.
Searching by MD5 hash.
hash=0D3512CAA964B2BA5D7851AF5951F33BReturns post with MD5 hash 0D3512CAA964B2BA5D7851AF5951F33B.
md5=0D3512CAA964B2BA5D7851AF5951F33BSame as above.
Searching by file name.
filename=picasso.jpgReturns posts that are named "picasso.jpg".
Searching for posts by source.
source=https://google.com/Returns posts with a source of "https://google.com/".
source=anyReturns posts with a source set.

Sorting search results
Sorting can be done using the pattern order:field_direction.
Supported fields: id, width, height, filesize, filename.
Direction can be either asc or desc, indicating ascending (123) or descending (321) order.
order=id_ascReturns posts sorted by ID, smallest first.
order=width_descReturns posts sorted by width, largest first.
Search for posts containing a certain number of comments, or comments by a particular individual.
