Why on earth can't this be fixed? Is it a problem with the software design being used?
Just seems awful odd that on a rare occasion it is does work but thats not very often.

This has gone on for a while now.
Using Google’s site search feature is extremely useful for narrow searches like that, but it loses a lot of usefulness since it doesn’t show thumbnails.
At least, not that I know how to do. If there’s a way to get Google to show them, I’d love to know how that’s done.

In theory this is supposed to be what Google Images is for -
But a closer look at these results shows some problems.
I don't know if this is a PBase problem (not doing something that is required for pages to be indexed by Google Images) or a Google problem (for some reason not recognising images stored on PBase).

A fix? Or just a random lucky streak?
