Thought I'd throw this out there since I just figured it out (month later).  When you search on SA, the default results lists out the profiles (one after the other with small photos).  But in the upper right hand corner, you can set the no. of profiles per page (i.e. 25 per page or 50 per page, etc.).  Next to the "per page" selection are 2 boxes - if you click the one on the left, the display changes to large photos that are easier to view for an initial look.  You can also click to see all the photos without viewing the profile.  This all sounds pretty basic but I just stumbled upon it after using the site for months.  So, I thought I'd post and hopefully save some time for others.  Be safe.

The number of profiles per page has been a feature for many years.  And the page toggle between horizontal stripes and large pics in a grid was only added 2 or 3 months ago.    

These are easier to spot when using a PC to access the site versus a phone.  

You can also save searches with different filter settlings and name them. So if you want to change up your searches, say one for college age slim blonds, and one for MILF-ish curvy brunettes, you don't have to rekey each filter setting, just switch between saved searches.
