'''
search - 
build query
START THREAD
send query (bg allready)
get result - metadata, small thumbnails, big thumbnails paths (now genereate this?)
write metadata, possibly to 
download small thumbnails first
start big thumbnails download. these don't have to be there on updates, if they aren't the Image in image editor doesn't get updated.
parse metadata, save it in json in the temp dir which gets read on each update of the search.
END THREAD
when download is triggered, get also this metadata from json. E
pass this single - item metadata in the download functions, threads.
