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

Matt
Unfortunately this won't piece of work in 99% of cases of epitome theft. This will only work if the person has shared your epitome to their blog or website.

Very bummed. Accept'nt even checked other photos. Any advice? I think I take to go back and start watermarking.

thanks you so much
Amanda
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 blog), you can use a site like Photobucket.com to upload a photo and get the URL.
Anne
Hi Amanda. FYI, in that location is a pinterest mail out there (wish I had marked it but I didn't) that uses your earlier and later on weight loss pics and when you click on information technology it goes to some weight loss site. Didn't wait like anything I have seen you lot mention, so you lot might desire to search pinterest if y'all can.
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 dark combing through search results and Pinterest posts finding the stolen photos and reporting them to Pinterest. I usually report almost 150 pins per night! Crazy, isn't information technology?? If you lot ever encounter one, just ship me the URL and I will report it. :)
Amanda Dawn

Y'all can actually just click the photo whether its on a spider web page or on your desktop and drag it to the Google search box to do the same affair. I just learned this trick a few months ago and its astonishing
Jamie
Awesome tip! Cheers Cynthia – and Amanda! The drag and drop feature is way better than all that cutting and pasting.
Kim @ In Our Write Minds
I was and then excited about the elevate-and-drop choice! I tried it in IE and Chrome, but nothing happened. Am I missing a pace?
Amanda
Yes, I'g not certain 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 simply style I look up images and have never had an upshot. I do apply Google Chrome generally and never on a MAC. But I think I have gotten to work on IE and FireFox. I will attempt to effigy it out for ya.

Yous ever postal service such useful tips Amanda, thank you so 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 photograph? Or will it only piece of work if they re-post the photo with exactly the same proper noun/URL that it originally came with when y'all posted it – I hope that makes sense?
Amanda
Great question Candice! Yep, information technology will definitely work if the photograph has been renamed — It will even work if the photo has been cropped, resized or even had small-scale changes made to it like lightened or darkened as well.
Candice
That is amazing! Thanks once more for this really cool info :o)

Or if you have whatever other useful tricks, please let me know. I actually Actually need your help. Thanks!

Would this work for Facebook photos as well or only pictures on blogs? I judge if you were able to exercise it on Facebook, information technology would definitely accept to be done on a reckoner not a cell phone.

This is a great resources. I belong to a portfolio site where lots of photographers and artists complain of their stuff being posted elsewhere. Most of it is harmless, but occasionally somebody finds their art in a Samsung advertising or some such. A mailing list I subscribe to shared a resources like to this but requested that listing subscribers keep it to themselves for the time existence, which was bugging me. Now I'thousand off the hook. :-D

What a great tip and very nice site we love i!
Google
Really another great way is to directly upload that images to google images search and and so expect for similar images which are to your. Google images search is pretty powerful and will discover all those images which look like without warring about the naming and You will get all the list of images and places where they are being hosted.

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

Hi Amanda.
I have IE and tried searching a few of my weblog tutorial pictures using your instructions above. I can not get whatsoever results from whatsoever of my attempts. It does non even find where I posted my ain pictures to my own blog, FB, Twitter, or Pintrest posts. I'g non sure what I'chiliad doing incorrect.
Jenny
i was agape to read this and so detect out people were stealing my pictures but i didn't discover annihilation so i feel better at present :P
Cher'ley
All I go is the paradigm with no information. I saw a photo I wanted to use in my ebook. It was sent as a Valentine salutation and it is and so cute (Two horses hugging), but I don't know how to find out who owns information technology and so I can become permission to use it. Thanks.
Matt
Unfortunately this won't piece of work in 99% of cases of epitome theft. This will only work if the person has shared your epitome to their blog or website. If they right clicked and saved the image similar 99% of people do, and then upload the prototype this doesn't piece of work. And then it'southward basically useless.
Caitlin
Julia, I would feel more comfortable discussing farther with you but over some private
measure such as email. I'yard non even sure I understand this site here. To my knowledge neither Kevin or Amanda ever responded to me.
Thanks,

Right-click on the 'preview' on your pictures on the gallery, non on the picture folio. Take fun :)

I've always used tineye.com for this, merely it'south nice to know there is some other option that might catch things the other missed. I've always watermarked my photos, only it'due south easy to crop those out anymore.
Jennifer
How would you do this if you have right click disabled on your blog. Is there another mode to get the file location or URL?
Caitlin
PS. The poser/thief has taken this woman's photo and created a fake FB folio too. I turned it in as a fake simply it's all the same upwards.
I have a MAC if that helps y'all to answer. And I'm not very computer savvy.

Tin you lot share the fake FB profile proper name?

Tin can you lot help? Photos were sent to me (we met on an online dating site) and turns out the person on the site is pretending to exist this adult female. It'due south really a human posing as her. He has sent some pics that I highly dubiousness she would want floating around (non sure how she feels near non-heterosexuality but it'southward a lesbian dating site). The poser is sucking a lot of women in for sure.
Is there a manner to accept the photos and endeavor and acquire who she is and then that she can be told what the heck is happening to her photos? I merely have photos sent to me via email. If I were in her position, I would want to know.

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 take come in handy before that happened to me. Since I couldn't try it on my blog- I tried information technology hither to meet information technology in action- only I didn't have to copy the image & upload. When I right clicked- information technology gave me the option in the drop down to simply search image in Google. Which then gave me the same page you showed with the results. I will effort to utilize that other tip someone left about dragging the image to the search bar to test information technology that way. Although I also disabled left click on my images so I may take to go to my web albums to try this out.
Heather
Wow. Super-cool tip! Found you via Pinterest. Looking frontwards to following you! :)
Nilsa @ SoMi Speaks
Interesting weblog mail on the reverse epitome search. So, hither's a one that's stumped me: I've put pretty strict restrictions on my online photos (no right 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 hands, that's why I've started watermarking my images). Anyway, I wonder if at that place's a fashion to search images whose URLs are unsearchable???

janet tobler
how practice you upload a photograph to the internet and grab the url?
do you accept a tutorial for that?
thanks you so much
Amanda
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 blog), you can use a site like Photobucket.com to upload a photo and get the URL.
Anne
Hi Amanda. FYI, in that location is a pinterest mail out there (wish I had marked it but I didn't) that uses your earlier and later on weight loss pics and when you click on information technology it goes to some weight loss site. Didn't wait like anything I have seen you lot mention, so you lot might desire to search pinterest if y'all can.
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 dark combing through search results and Pinterest posts finding the stolen photos and reporting them to Pinterest. I usually report almost 150 pins per night! Crazy, isn't information technology?? If you lot ever encounter one, just ship me the URL and I will report it. :)

Jamie
Awesome tip! Cheers Cynthia – and Amanda! The drag and drop feature is way better than all that cutting and pasting.
Kim @ In Our Write Minds
I was and then excited about the elevate-and-drop choice! I tried it in IE and Chrome, but nothing happened. Am I missing a pace?
Amanda
Yes, I'g not certain 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 simply style I look up images and have never had an upshot. I do apply Google Chrome generally and never on a MAC. But I think I have gotten to work on IE and FireFox. I will attempt to effigy it out for ya.
Willow

Candice
Yous ever postal service such useful tips Amanda, thank you so 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 photograph? Or will it only piece of work if they re-post the photo with exactly the same proper noun/URL that it originally came with when y'all posted it – I hope that makes sense?
Amanda
Great question Candice! Yep, information technology will definitely work if the photograph has been renamed — It will even work if the photo has been cropped, resized or even had small-scale changes made to it like lightened or darkened as well.
Candice
That is amazing! Thanks once more for this really cool info :o)
