Go to google.com –> On the header (of You lot+, Search, Images… ) click on "Images" –> At the finish of the search field, there is a camera icon, click on it. (when yous hover over information technology, information technology will say "search past epitome") –> You tin either "Paste prototype URL" or click on "Upload an paradigm". Click on upload an epitome if you have no URL, or if yous want a quick mode of searching images y'all have on your PC. –> You lot can at present browse and select your image, or only drag an image file from your explorer into the search field… –>
And in that location you have it, your paradigm searched… :)

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 then that she can be 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 desire to know.

Although I too disabled left click on my images then I may accept to go to my web albums to endeavor this out.
Heather

Interesting blog mail 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 copy on my web log, Flickr and Facebook). However, that doesn't stop someone from using my imaging (screen shots circumvent that pretty easily, that'south why I've started watermarking my images). Anyway, I wonder if at that place's a way to search images whose URLs are unsearchable???

Unfortunately this won't piece of work in 99% of cases of image theft. This will but work if the person has shared your image to their weblog or website. If they right clicked and saved the prototype like 99% of people do, then upload the image this doesn't work. So information technology'due south basically useless.

He has sent some pics that I highly doubt she would want floating around (not sure how she feels virtually non-heterosexuality but it'south 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 then that she can be 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 desire to know.
I tried on google reverse photo search with no luck and tineye with no luck.

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 in handy before that happened to me. Since I couldn't attempt it on my weblog- I tried it here to run into it in action- only I didn't have to copy the image & upload. When I right clicked- it gave me the option in the drop down to only search image in Google. Which then gave me the same page you showed with the results. I will try to use that other tip someone left nigh dragging the image to the search bar to test it that mode. Although I too disabled left click on my images then I may accept to go to my web albums to endeavor this out.
Heather
Wow. Super-cool tip! Establish you via Pinterest. Looking forward to following you! :)
Nilsa @ SoMi Speaks
Interesting blog mail 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 copy on my web log, Flickr and Facebook). However, that doesn't stop someone from using my imaging (screen shots circumvent that pretty easily, that'south why I've started watermarking my images). Anyway, I wonder if at that place's a way to search images whose URLs are unsearchable???

Thanks so much for this valuable communication, Amanda. I've been seeing lots of bloggers write about pirating of content and photos lately. Fifty-fifty though I am a petty blog I know I need to at to the lowest degree watermark my photos. I oasis't establish a "painless" way to do it without uploading/downloading each photograph to a photo editing site.
Melissa @ Anoint This Mess
Miss Kitty- do you photoshop at all? In that location is an easy manner to make a postage in PS so that you can only stamp on your watermark while editing earlier uploading. It'south a corking little trick!

If you don't have a web log and can't use the tutorial higher up (which shows you how to get the URL from a photo on your web log), yous can use a site like Photobucket.com to upload a photo and get the URL.
Anne
Hi Amanda. FYI, there is a pinterest mail service out there (wish I had marked it simply I didn't) that uses your earlier and after weight loss pics and when you click on it it goes to some weight loss site. Didn't await similar anything I have seen you mention, so y'all might desire to search pinterest if you tin can.
Amanda
Thanks so much for letting me know, Anne! That is exactly what I've been using this tutorial for. I terminate 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 study about 150 pins per night! Crazy, isn't it?? If you ever see one, just send me the URL and I will written report it. :)

cynthia y
Hmm I don't know why its not working. This is the only way I look up images and take never had an issue. I practice utilise Google Chrome mostly and never on a MAC. But I recollect I have gotten to work on IE and FireFox. I will attempt to figure it out for ya.

A quick question though – will this work if the person, who has downloaded your photograph and "recycled" information technology for their ain utilize, has renamed the photo? Or will it but piece of work if they re-postal service the photograph with exactly the aforementioned name/URL that it originally came with when you posted it – I hope that makes sense?

Keen question Candice! Yes, it volition definitely piece of work if the photograph has been renamed — It will fifty-fifty piece of work if the photo has been cropped, resized or even had minor changes made to it like lightened or darkened every bit well.
Candice
