That's not true. Advanced search is still available just below the search
box, every time you make a search. Cf.

They're probably doing this because they assume that you probably only need
advanced search if you didn't find what you wanted on regular search. Seems
like a pretty safe assumption from a UX perspetive. Obviously that doesn't
account for the use case of Commons people hunting for photos, but that's
hardly the majority of their users.
