This is a great resource. I belong to a portfolio site where lots of photographers and artists complain of their stuff being posted elsewhere. Most of it is harmless, merely occasionally somebody finds their fine art in a Samsung ad or some such. A mailing listing I subscribe to shared a resource similar to this just requested that list subscribers keep information technology to themselves for the fourth dimension being, which was bugging me. Now I'm off the hook. :-D

What a bang-up tip and very nice site we honey i!

Actually some other great fashion is to directly upload that images to google images search and then look for similar images which are to your. Google images search is pretty powerful and will observe all those images which wait similar without warring nearly the naming and Y'all will get all the list of images and places where they are being hosted.

Dear Amanda, I met someone from facebook and his proper noun in that location was Ronnie Powell. He had many pics in FB aforementioned all faces. We've been chatmates for how many months. I think 4 months. And everytime I ask him to let me see him on cam, he refuses me. One time, they went to Paris together with his dad. that was he said to me, and I dont know if he was true or was but lying. Then by next day, I receive a message from his IM that he meet accident goin dorsum from Paris to United kingdom. And so, the one who messaged me was his cousin named Andrew, and when he let me saw him on cam, I was taken aback becuz he looked like a Pakistani and non similarly similar with the guy on the movie. I know they are non bro but even cousins take yet like faces. I blocked him and unblocked him again. Afterwards few weeks he came dorsum and said that why he blocked me and respond on his messages. I told him that he was not the guy on the pic and he insisted that it was him, only i still have a doubt. So, how would I know who is the guy on the pic? will i able to know him – the real name of the guy on the pic EVEN IF Information technology WAS TAKEN FROM FB using ur trick and will i able to know where that stupid wannabe stole that pic that he used to pretend? Please help me…

Thanks for the nifty tip. I only saw it and establish another way to do it. I have not read the 100+ comments, and so I don't know if someone has already posted it. Anyway, here's how…
Go to google.com –> On the header (of Y'all+, Search, Images… ) click on "Images" –> At the end of the search field, there is a camera icon, click on it. (when you lot hover over it, information technology will say "search by prototype") –> You lot can either "Paste image URL" or click on "Upload an paradigm". Click on upload an paradigm if you have no URL, or if y'all want a quick way of searching images you have on your PC. –> You can now scan and select your image, or simply drag an image file from your explorer into the search field… –>
And there you take information technology, your image searched… :)

Hi Amanda. I have IE and tried searching a few of my blog tutorial pictures using your instructions higher up. I tin not get whatever results from any of my attempts. It does not fifty-fifty find where I posted my own pictures to my own web log, FB, Twitter, or Pintrest posts. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.

Matt
Unfortunately this won't work in 99% of cases of prototype theft. This will merely piece of work if the person has shared your image to their blog or website. If they right clicked and saved the image like 99% of people practise, then upload the image this doesn't work. So it's basically useless.
Caitlin
Julia, I would feel more than comfortable discussing further with yous but over some private measure such as email. I'grand not even sure I understand this site here. To my knowledge neither Kevin or Amanda ever responded to me.

Information technology's actually a man posing as her. He has sent some pics that I highly doubt she would want floating around (non sure how she feels about not-heterosexuality but it's a lesbian dating site). The poser is sucking a lot of women in for certain.
Is there a way to accept the photos and try and acquire who she is and then that she tin can exist told what the heck is happening to her photos? I simply have photos sent to me via email. If I were in her position, I would want to know.
I tried on google reverse photo search with no luck and tineye with no luck. Thanks for your aid. Caitlin

This is awesome. I have my blog right click disabled since someone stole images of my kids & used them for her fake life on FB. This would have come up in handy before that happened to me. Since I couldn't try it on my blog- I tried it here to see it in action- only I didn't take to copy the image & upload. When I right clicked- it gave me the option in the drop down to just search image in Google. Which and then gave me the aforementioned page you showed with the results. I will try to utilise that other tip someone left virtually dragging the image to the search bar to test information technology that way. Although I also disabled left click on my images and so I may have to go to my web albums to try this out.
Heather
Wow. Super-absurd tip! Constitute you via Pinterest. Looking forward to following yous! :)

Yet, that doesn't finish someone from using my imaging (screen shots circumvent that pretty hands, that's why I've started watermarking my images).

We randomly discoverred someone "grabbed" my facebook background photo I had taken on my Alaskan cruise from my balcony and posted and and so put on his facebook every bit his background! I guess he thought it was lovely!!! I do not re-post anything unless it has a "pin it" button on information technology equally I believe that these belong to the person who posts it unless they have given permission by the "pin it" push button.
Anele @ Success Along the Weigh
I don't know why but I'chiliad scared to do this! LOL
shelly (cookies and cups)
Absurd trick! Love all your bloggy tutorials!
janet tobler
how practice you lot upload a photo to the internet and grab the url? practise you take a tutorial for that?
thank you you lot so much
Amanda
If you don't have a blog and can't use the tutorial to a higher place (which shows y'all how to go the URL from a photo on your blog), yous can use a site like Photobucket.com to upload a photo and get the URL.
Anne
Hullo Amanda. FYI, there is a pinterest post out there (wish I had marked information technology just I didn't) that uses your before and after weight loss pics and when you click on it information technology goes to some weight loss site. Didn't wait like annihilation I take seen yous mention, so you might desire to search pinterest if yous tin.
Amanda
Thanks so much for letting me know, Anne! That is exactly what I've been using this tutorial for. I end up spending a couple hours every night combing through search results and Pinterest posts finding the stolen photos and reporting them to Pinterest. I usually written report about 150 pins per night! Crazy, isn't information technology?? If you always see one, simply send me the URL and I will report it. :)
Amanda Dawn
Thanks Amanda! It's e'er fun learning something new, geeky, and elementary! To recollect, this has been here all along. You're and so clever. :)
cynthia y
You tin can actually just click the photo whether its on a web page or on your desktop and elevate it to the Google search box to do the aforementioned thing. I merely learned this trick a few months ago and its amazing
Jamie
AWESOME tip! Cheers Cynthia – and Amanda! The drag and drop characteristic is manner better than all that cutting and pasting.
Kim @ In Our Write Minds
I was so excited almost the drag-and-driblet choice! I tried it in IE and Chrome, but nil happened. Am I missing a pace?
Amanda
Yeah, I'm not sure how accurate this is Kim, I never could get it to work either! (Firefox & Safari on Mac)
cynthia y
Hmm I don't know why its not working. This is the merely way I look up images and have never had an upshot. I do use Google Chrome mostly and never on a MAC. Merely I think I have gotten to work on IE and FireFox. I will endeavour to figure it out for ya.
Willow
Thanks for the dandy tip!
Briana
Wow. This is crawly! And and then helpful. Thanks for sharing!
Dora Panariti
That's extremely usuful !!! Thanks Amanda! :D
Averie @ Averie Cooks
Wow – extremely cool, helpful and I could have some fun playing around with this!
Candice
You always mail such useful tips Amanda, thanks and then much :o) A quick question though – will this work if the person, who has downloaded your photo and "recycled" it for their ain use, has renamed the photo? Or will it only piece of work if they re-post the photo with exactly the same name/URL that it originally came with when you posted it – I hope that makes sense?
Amanda
Nifty question Candice! Yes, it will definitely work if the photo has been renamed — It will even work if the photo has been cropped, resized or fifty-fifty had minor changes made to it like lightened or darkened as well.
Candice
That is astonishing! Thank you again for this really absurd info :o)
Michele
I wanted to notice out if this guy was using a imitation photo to try and friend me on facebook and then I took one of his images. It just so happens he doesn't have a shirt on.

Considering I sent my picture taken from facebook to my ex-friend on kik a while ago earlier nosotros argued, and I think she reposted information technology in some website, but I'yard non certain. I'm worried that she might mail it on porn websites etc. I tried to do this to find my pictures merely it didn't work. So my question is : Does that trick works on Facebook motion-picture show ? Or if you have any other useful tricks, please let me know. I actually Actually demand your assistance. Give thanks y'all!

Jessica
Would this work for Facebook photos as well or merely pictures on blogs? I judge if you were able to exercise it on Facebook, it would definitely have to be done on a calculator not a cell phone. I see thedrag and drop method on Catfish all the time but it's never worked for me!

Carol
So what do you lot do if you find one that doesn't link back to you?

Its funny that the postal service was dated April 2008, I didn't do my post until March 2012.. gauge she didn't similar her own photo and replaced it with mine! I too have a "content and photos on this site are the sole property of….." on the side bar.

-Rebecca

This is a great resource. I belong to a portfolio site where lots of photographers and artists complain of their stuff being posted elsewhere. Most of it is harmless, merely occasionally somebody finds their fine art in a Samsung ad or some such. A mailing listing I subscribe to shared a resource similar to this just requested that list subscribers keep information technology to themselves for the fourth dimension being, which was bugging me. Now I'm off the hook. :-D
Robert Connor
What a bang-up tip and very nice site we honey i!
Google
Actually some other great fashion is to directly upload that images to google images search and then look for similar images which are to your. Google images search is pretty powerful and will observe all those images which wait similar without warring nearly the naming and Y'all will get all the list of images and places where they are being hosted.

Dear Amanda, I met someone from facebook and his proper noun in that location was Ronnie Powell. He had many pics in FB aforementioned all faces. We've been chatmates for how many months. I think 4 months. And everytime I ask him to let me see him on cam, he refuses me. One time, they went to Paris together with his dad. that was he said to me, and I dont know if he was true or was but lying. Then by next day, I receive a message from his IM that he meet accident goin dorsum from Paris to United kingdom. And so, the one who messaged me was his cousin named Andrew, and when he let me saw him on cam, I was taken aback becuz he looked like a Pakistani and non similarly similar with the guy on the movie. I know they are non bro but even cousins take yet like faces. I blocked him and unblocked him again. Afterwards few weeks he came dorsum and said that why he blocked me and respond on his messages. I told him that he was not the guy on the pic and he insisted that it was him, only i still have a doubt. So, how would I know who is the guy on the pic? will i able to know him – the real name of the guy on the pic EVEN IF Information technology WAS TAKEN FROM FB using ur trick and will i able to know where that stupid wannabe stole that pic that he used to pretend? Please help me…
Robert Connor

Thanks for the nifty tip. I only saw it and establish another way to do it. I have not read the 100+ comments, and so I don't know if someone has already posted it. Anyway, here's how…
Go to google.com –>
On the header (of Y'all+, Search, Images… ) click on "Images" –>
At the end of the search field, there is a camera icon, click on it. (when you lot hover over it, information technology will say "search by prototype") –>
You lot can either "Paste image URL" or click on "Upload an paradigm". Click on upload an paradigm if you have no URL, or if y'all want a quick way of searching images you have on your PC. –>
You can now scan and select your image, or simply drag an image file from your explorer into the search field… –>
And there you take information technology, your image searched… :)

Hi Amanda.
I have IE and tried searching a few of my blog tutorial pictures using your instructions higher up. I tin not get whatever results from any of my attempts. It does not fifty-fifty find where I posted my own pictures to my own web log, FB, Twitter, or Pintrest posts. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Jenny
i was afraid to read this and then find out people were stealing my pictures but i didn't find anything and so i feel ameliorate at present :P
Cher'ley
All I get is the image with no data. I saw a photo I wanted to apply in my ebook. It was sent as a Valentine salutation and it is so cute (Two horses hugging), merely I don't know how to find out who owns it so I tin can get permission to use it. Thanks.
Matt
Unfortunately this won't work in 99% of cases of prototype theft. This will merely piece of work if the person has shared your image to their blog or website. If they right clicked and saved the image like 99% of people practise, then upload the image this doesn't work. So it's basically useless.
Caitlin
Julia, I would feel more than comfortable discussing further with yous but over some private
measure such as email. I'grand not even sure I understand this site here. To my knowledge neither Kevin or Amanda ever responded to me.
Cheers,

Howdy Ed, I but spent 20 minutes checking my own Flickr pictures so I can assure you lot it works. :)
Right-click on the 'preview' on your pictures on the gallery, not on the flick page. Have fun :)

I've always used tineye.com for this, just information technology'south prissy to know there is another choice that might grab things the other missed. I've always watermarked my photos, merely it's easy to crop those out anymore.
Jennifer
How would you do this if you lot have right click disabled on your blog. Is there some other manner to go the file location or URL?
Caitlin
PS. The poser/thief has taken this woman'due south photo and created a simulated FB page likewise. I turned it in as a fake but it'southward withal up.
I have a MAC if that helps you lot to answer. And I'm not very calculator savvy.

Caitlin
Amanda and Kevin,
Can yous help? Photos were sent to me (we met on an online dating site) and turns out the person on the site is pretending to be this adult female. Information technology's actually a man posing as her. He has sent some pics that I highly doubt she would want floating around (non sure how she feels about not-heterosexuality but it's a lesbian dating site). The poser is sucking a lot of women in for certain.
Is there a way to accept the photos and try and acquire who she is and then that she tin can exist told what the heck is happening to her photos? I simply have photos sent to me via email. If I were in her position, I would want to know.
I tried on google reverse photo search with no luck and tineye with no luck.
Thanks for your aid.

I only establish this through Pinterest – Thank you! I had the experience of several of my photos (pinned from my blog) ending upwards on Pinterest weight lost "spam" sites – and at least one(which was non related at all to porn) on a lath I would narrate equally soft porn with a weight loss message. Disgusting! Thank you a tertiary time!

my question is what practise y'all do when someone is stealing your photos/posts? Especially the foreign ones– I don't really know how to stop them.
Abby
Ack. I tin can't BELIEVE how many people have stolen my photos. I see to a higher place that someone has given an even easier way to track down thieves. Anyone know of a program that alerts y'all if an image is republished?
Suzan
I tried this with a photo I know for a fact was taken and put as someone's Facebook profile photograph. Information technology just showed the link to my blog, not to the Facebook page.
Valerie

Every time I encounter something that I know is from your site (which I seem to have memorized because I've been a regular reader for and so long) or other blogs I frequent on Pinterest or anywhere else, I make sure to "comment" who should get the credit. : )
Lately I've been seeing your t-shirt scarf popular up a lot.

After following information technology I found two of my images posted on two different sites. :( One cropped information technology and posted information technology as a complimentary wallpaper download. I tin't detect an owner to the website, then I take no ane to email :( I tried posting in the comments section merely information technology's still "awaiting moderation" GRRR!!! The other one I found an email for and sent them a message to remove my image. We'll see how that goes…

Gina
This is awesome. I have my blog right click disabled since someone stole images of my kids & used them for her fake life on FB. This would have come up in handy before that happened to me. Since I couldn't try it on my blog- I tried it here to see it in action- only I didn't take to copy the image & upload. When I right clicked- it gave me the option in the drop down to just search image in Google. Which and then gave me the aforementioned page you showed with the results. I will try to utilise that other tip someone left virtually dragging the image to the search bar to test information technology that way. Although I also disabled left click on my images and so I may have to go to my web albums to try this out.
Heather
Wow. Super-absurd tip! Constitute you via Pinterest. Looking forward to following yous! :)
Nilsa @ SoMi Speaks
Interesting weblog mail service on the reverse image search. So, here's a ane that's stumped me: I've put pretty strict restrictions on my online photos (no correct clicking to re-create on my weblog, Flickr and Facebook). Yet, that doesn't finish someone from using my imaging (screen shots circumvent that pretty hands, that's why I've started watermarking my images). Anyway, I wonder if there'southward a fashion to search images whose URLs are unsearchable???

Not bad tutorial equally e'er!

In Chrome I see the pick to Copy Image URL.

Thanks so much for this valuable communication, Amanda. I've been seeing lots of bloggers write almost pirating of content and photos lately. Even though I am a little blog I know I demand to at least watermark my photos. I haven't found a "painless" manner to exercise it without uploading/downloading each photo to a photo editing site.
Melissa @ Anoint This Mess
Miss Kitty- practise y'all photoshop at all? At that place is an easy way to make a stamp in PS and then that you can simply stamp on your watermark while editing before uploading. It'south a not bad little trick!

We randomly discoverred someone "grabbed" my facebook background photo I had taken on my Alaskan cruise from my balcony and posted and and so put on his facebook every bit his background!

I do not re-post anything unless it has a "pin it" button on information technology equally I believe that these belong to the person who posts it unless they have given permission by the "pin it" push button.

I don't know why but I'chiliad scared to do this! LOL
shelly (cookies and cups)
Absurd trick! Love all your bloggy tutorials!
janet tobler
how practice you lot upload a photo to the internet and grab the url?
practise you take a tutorial for that?
thank you you lot so much
Amanda
If you don't have a blog and can't use the tutorial to a higher place (which shows y'all how to go the URL from a photo on your blog), yous can use a site like Photobucket.com to upload a photo and get the URL.
Anne
Hullo Amanda. FYI, there is a pinterest post out there (wish I had marked information technology just I didn't) that uses your before and after weight loss pics and when you click on it information technology goes to some weight loss site. Didn't wait like annihilation I take seen yous mention, so you might desire to search pinterest if yous tin.
Amanda
Thanks so much for letting me know, Anne! That is exactly what I've been using this tutorial for. I end up spending a couple hours every night combing through search results and Pinterest posts finding the stolen photos and reporting them to Pinterest. I usually written report about 150 pins per night! Crazy, isn't information technology?? If you always see one, simply send me the URL and I will report it. :)
Amanda Dawn

cynthia y
You tin can actually just click the photo whether its on a web page or on your desktop and elevate it to the Google search box to do the aforementioned thing. I merely learned this trick a few months ago and its amazing
Jamie
AWESOME tip! Cheers Cynthia – and Amanda! The drag and drop characteristic is manner better than all that cutting and pasting.
Kim @ In Our Write Minds
I was so excited almost the drag-and-driblet choice! I tried it in IE and Chrome, but nil happened. Am I missing a pace?
Amanda
Yeah, I'm not sure how accurate this is Kim, I never could get it to work either! (Firefox & Safari on Mac)
cynthia y
Hmm I don't know why its not working. This is the merely way I look up images and have never had an upshot. I do use Google Chrome mostly and never on a MAC. Merely I think I have gotten to work on IE and FireFox. I will endeavour to figure it out for ya.
Willow
Thanks for the dandy tip!
Briana

Averie @ Averie Cooks

Candice
You always mail such useful tips Amanda, thanks and then much :o)
A quick question though – will this work if the person, who has downloaded your photo and "recycled" it for their ain use, has renamed the photo? Or will it only piece of work if they re-post the photo with exactly the same name/URL that it originally came with when you posted it – I hope that makes sense?
Amanda
Nifty question Candice! Yes, it will definitely work if the photo has been renamed — It will even work if the photo has been cropped, resized or fifty-fifty had minor changes made to it like lightened or darkened as well.
Candice
That is astonishing! Thank you again for this really absurd info :o)
