Abstract

Methods and systems for compiling image results into compilation images so that multiple image results may be downloaded via a single browser-download connection are provided. An image search request is received and a plurality of image results that satisfy the image search request are determined. At least a portion of the image results determined to satisfy the search request are dynamically stitched together to create a compilation image. Upon receiving an image download request for a satisfying image result, the compilation image is returned to the user's browser rather than a single thumbnail image. In this way, a plurality of image results is returned via a single browser-download connection and the latency in returning a large number of request-satisfying image results is decreased.
