Photo Finder

Hi everyone, i remember a while ago someone posted a link to some free software that searches the web and can find out if anyone is using your photos without permission. I lost the software when my laptop crashed, could someone help me by sending me the link again please.

Google image search is far better, go to Google Images, select the little camera icon to the right of search field, upload or paste a url and away you go. There are threads on here about it as I don;t think I've explained that too brilliantly

You can also drag one of your images from your website or flickr into the search box of google images open in another tab, the quickest way I've found.

Ok thanks guys, the other one i had could check several photos at a time, you just opened your flickr page or a folder full of photos and clicked on the link icon and it put a large question mark on the photo, when you clicked on the question mark it showed a list of similar photos including my own if it had been found anywhere, it was a quick way of checking a folder full of photos.

Click the camera icon then upload or point it to a photo url. Or get the right click addon for browsers.

So far ive got a 100% fail rate with tineye - its never managed to find a single one of my images but google image finds (literally) hundreds.
