Are Lazy Loaded Images Crawled By Google?

[ModDM]

Regarding the widely found issue on the web about dynamically loaded content that is / was not crawled by Google, my question is if Lazyload images are available for Google to crawl it and to show it for example on Google Images site (images.google.com).

Doing an site:www.appelsiini.net search seems to reveal several car images which are from lazyload demo pages.

A practicle example = the best answer! Thank you very much.

It's okay, because it works correctly, but I was just wondering about some little thing that might explain it:
Google recognizes it, maybe by reading Javascript, but maybe because of the src attribute. This attribute is not in the original HTML, but am I right that this attribute is dynamically added to the img tags by the script?

@ModDM I believe this works because Google's crawler loads all js 0 and 1. My company's site is rendered completely on the client and google has no issues.

Thank you Peter. Always good to know how Google works, since we can not without Google nowadays.

@tuupola hey i checked. Images that are getting crawled are not from the lazyload page. They are from http://www.appelsiini.net/projects/viewport/3x2.html in which images are not lazy load. My site is using this plugin and my images are not getting cralwed by google

[ModDM]

Hey, you are right @ankur0890. Has something changed @tuupola?

Lazy loaded images are being crawled by Google,

Google it "jquery smartify" for images and see the result

I can see images which are from lazyload demo pages.
