I have had a person emailing me since Nov. 19th, 2013. Proverb some terrible things about my husband and I. She has sent a photograph. The start one was totally different than the concluding. The last ane she claimed is really her, how tin can I find out who this person is by the photo?

Jessica
Would this work for Facebook photos too or just pictures on blogs? I judge if you were able to do it on Facebook, information technology would definitely have to be washed on a computer not a cell phone. I see thedrag and drop method on Catfish all the time simply it'south never worked for me!

So what do you do if you find one that doesn't link dorsum to you? I have found 1 of my pictures, and information technology doesn't link back to my blog. Its funny that the post was dated April 2008, I didn't do my mail until March 2012.. approximate she didn't like her own photograph and replaced information technology with mine! I also have a "content and photos on this site are the sole holding of….." on the side bar.

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 information technology is harmless, but occasionally somebody finds their art in a Samsung ad or some such. A mailing list I subscribe to shared a resources similar to this only requested that list subscribers continue it to themselves for the time existence, which was bugging me. Now I'm off the hook. :-D
Robert Connor
What a smashing tip and very nice site we dear i!
Google
Actually another keen way is to straight 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 detect all those images which look similar without warring virtually the naming and You will become all the list of images and places where they are being hosted.

(when you lot hover over it, information technology volition say "search past prototype") –> You can either "Paste image URL" or click on "Upload an image".

And there you accept it, your image searched… :)

Matt
Unfortunately this won't work in 99% of cases of image theft. This volition just work if the person has shared your epitome to their weblog or website. If they right clicked and saved the image like 99% of people do, so upload the image this doesn't work. And so it'southward basically useless.

It's actually a man posing equally her. He has sent some pics that I highly dubiety she would desire floating around (not sure how she feels virtually not-heterosexuality but it's a lesbian dating site). The poser is sucking a lot of women in for certain.
Is in that location a manner to take the photos and try and learn who she is so that she can be told what the heck is happening to her photos? I only have photos sent to me via email. If I were in her position, I would want to know.

Ack. I can't BELIEVE how many people take stolen my photos. I see above that someone has given an fifty-fifty easier way to track down thieves. Anyone know of a programme that alerts you if an image is republished?

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 effort it on my blog- I tried information technology here to see it in action- only I didn't accept to copy the image & upload. When I right clicked- it gave me the option in the driblet down to just search image in Google. Which then gave me the same page yous showed with the results. I will try to use that other tip someone left about dragging the image to the search bar to test it that way. Although I besides disabled left click on my images so I may have to go to my web albums to try this out.
Heather
Wow. Super-cool tip! Found you via Pinterest. Looking forrard to following you! :)
Nilsa @ SoMi Speaks
Interesting blog post on the reverse image search. So, here'south a one that's stumped me: I've put pretty strict restrictions on my online photos (no correct clicking to copy on my blog, Flickr and Facebook). Nevertheless, that doesn't stop someone from using my imaging (screen shots circumvent that pretty easily, that's why I've started watermarking my images). Anyway, I wonder if at that place's a way to search images whose URLs are unsearchable???

In Chrome I see the option to Copy Image URL.

Thanks so much for this valuable advice, Amanda. I've been seeing lots of bloggers write almost pirating of content and photos lately. Even though I am a picayune blog I know I need to at least watermark my photos. I haven't found a "painless" way to practise it without uploading/downloading each photo to a photograph editing site.
Melissa @ Bless This Mess
Miss Kitty- do you photoshop at all? There is an easy style to make a stamp in PS so that you tin just stamp on your watermark while editing before uploading. It'due south a great petty flim-flam!

Thanks for the tip. I merely did a search on one photograph and unfortunately saw that it was misused on multiple sites. One site is in another linguistic communication and they've watermarked it as their ain! Very bummed. Have'nt even checked other photos. Whatever communication? I think I have to go back and start watermarking.

We randomly discoverred someone "grabbed" my facebook background photograph I had taken on my Alaskan cruise from my balcony and posted and so put on his facebook every bit his background! I judge he thought it was lovely!!! I do not re-post anything unless information technology has a "pin it" button on it as I believe that these belong to the person who posts it unless they have given permission by the "pivot it" button.

cheers you so much
Amanda
If you don't have a web log and can't apply the tutorial above (which shows you how to get the URL from a photo on your blog), you lot can employ a site like Photobucket.com to upload a photo and get the URL.
Anne
Hi Amanda. FYI, there is a pinterest mail out there (wish I had marked it but I didn't) that uses your earlier and after weight loss pics and when y'all click on it it goes to some weight loss site. Didn't look like annihilation I have seen you mention, so you might want to search pinterest if you can.
Amanda
Thanks so much for letting me know, Anne! That is exactly what I've been using this tutorial for. I end upwards 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 it?? If y'all ever see one, just send me the URL and I will report information technology. :)
Amanda Dawn

Yous can really just click the photo whether its on a web page or on your desktop and drag it to the Google search box to practice the same thing. I just learned this play a joke on a few months agone and its amazing
Jamie
Crawly tip! Thanks Cynthia – and Amanda! The drag and drop feature is way amend than all that cut and pasting.
Kim @ In Our Write Minds
I was and so excited about the drag-and-drop option! I tried it in IE and Chrome, but nothing happened. Am I missing a step?
Amanda
Yep, 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 style I look upwards images and have never had an issue. I practise use Google Chrome mostly and never on a MAC. But I recollect I have gotten to work on IE and FireFox. I volition try to figure information technology out for ya.

Briana

You always post 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 own use, has renamed the photograph? Or volition it but work if they re-post the photo with exactly the same proper name/URL that information technology originally came with when you lot posted information technology – I hope that makes sense?
Amanda
Swell question Candice! Yes, it will definitely work if the photo has been renamed — It volition even work if the photo has been cropped, resized or fifty-fifty had pocket-size changes made to it like lightened or darkened also.
Candice
That is astonishing! Thanks again for this really absurd info :o)

Susanna
How-do-you-do! Thank you for the useful tutorial, simply I was wondering if it would work on Facebook pictures. Because I sent my moving picture taken from facebook to my ex-friend on kik a while ago before nosotros argued, and I think she reposted it in some website, but I'm not sure. I'm worried that she might post it on porn websites etc. I tried to practice this to find my pictures but it didn't work. So my question is : Does that trick works on Facebook movie ? Or if yous have whatever other useful tricks, delight let me know. I really REALLY need your assist. Give thanks you!

Much easier -quicker way to search is: in Chrome, right click on any prototype and choose an option 'Search google for this image' from the drop downward menu. Takes a 2d :) No need for URL.

I have had a person emailing me since Nov. 19th, 2013. Proverb some terrible things about my husband and I. She has sent a photograph. The start one was totally different than the concluding. The last ane she claimed is really her, how tin can I find out who this person is by the photo?
Sonja Bailey
I accept a picture that I am wanting to discover out where it came from and who it is I was not able to follow your steps on here please help me
I traced 1 pic to a scam but this ane I actually call back I know this person and demand to let them know if their pic is existence used… it is a dating fraud and scamming money
Carrie
Is there any way to exercise this on a smartphone? And where on the internet are we. supposed to upload the pictures if yous're trying to find where a pic came from either on your smartphone or the computer.. too is the image url and image location different? Thanks.
Jessica
Would this work for Facebook photos too or just pictures on blogs? I judge if you were able to do it on Facebook, information technology would definitely have to be washed on a computer not a cell phone. I see thedrag and drop method on Catfish all the time simply it'south never worked for me!

In Chrome it's a right click and at that place is already an option to search. I blog almost Crossfit but I don't consider myself a Crossfit blogger.

I just need to contact one of them to give me proper credit. wow!

Carol
So what do you do if you find one that doesn't link dorsum to you?
I have found 1 of my pictures, and information technology doesn't link back to my blog. Its funny that the post was dated April 2008, I didn't do my mail until March 2012.. approximate she didn't like her own photograph and replaced information technology with mine! I also have a "content and photos on this site are the sole holding of….." on the side bar.

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 information technology is harmless, but occasionally somebody finds their art in a Samsung ad or some such. A mailing list I subscribe to shared a resources similar to this only requested that list subscribers continue it to themselves for the time existence, which was bugging me. Now I'm off the hook. :-D
Robert Connor
What a smashing tip and very nice site we dear i!
Google
Actually another keen way is to straight 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 detect all those images which look similar without warring virtually the naming and You will become all the list of images and places where they are being hosted.

How-do-you-do Amanda.
I have IE and tried searching a few of my blog tutorial pictures using your instructions higher up. I can not get any results from any of my attempts. It does non even notice where I posted my own pictures to my ain blog, FB, Twitter, or Pintrest posts. I'm not certain what I'm doing wrong.

All I go is the image with no information. I saw a photo I wanted to utilize in my ebook. Information technology was sent as a Valentine salutation and it is and then beautiful (Two horses hugging), but I don't know how to find out who owns it then I can get permission to utilise it. Thank you.
Matt
Unfortunately this won't work in 99% of cases of image theft. This volition just work if the person has shared your epitome to their weblog or website. If they right clicked and saved the image like 99% of people do, so upload the image this doesn't work. And so it'southward basically useless.

Right-click on the 'preview' on your pictures on the gallery, not on the picture folio. Have fun :)

I've e'er used tineye.com for this, but information technology'south squeamish to know at that place is another selection that might grab things the other missed. I've always watermarked my photos, but it's like shooting fish in a barrel to crop those out anymore.

How would you do this if you accept right click disabled on your blog. Is there another way to get the file location or URL?

PS. The poser/thief has taken this woman's photograph and created a fake FB page too. I turned it in as a fake but information technology'southward still up.

Caitlin
Amanda and Kevin,
Tin can you assistance? 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 woman. It's actually a man posing equally her. He has sent some pics that I highly dubiety she would desire floating around (not sure how she feels virtually not-heterosexuality but it's a lesbian dating site). The poser is sucking a lot of women in for certain.
Is in that location a manner to take the photos and try and learn who she is so that she can be told what the heck is happening to her photos? I only have photos sent to me via email. If I were in her position, I would want to know.
I tried on google reverse photograph search with no luck and tineye with no luck.

Ack. I can't BELIEVE how many people take stolen my photos. I see above that someone has given an fifty-fifty easier way to track down thieves. Anyone know of a programme that alerts you if an image is republished?

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 effort it on my blog- I tried information technology here to see it in action- only I didn't accept to copy the image & upload. When I right clicked- it gave me the option in the driblet down to just search image in Google. Which then gave me the same page yous showed with the results. I will try to use that other tip someone left about dragging the image to the search bar to test it that way. Although I besides disabled left click on my images so I may have to go to my web albums to try this out.
Heather
Wow. Super-cool tip! Found you via Pinterest. Looking forrard to following you! :)
Nilsa @ SoMi Speaks
Interesting blog post on the reverse image search. So, here'south a one that's stumped me: I've put pretty strict restrictions on my online photos (no correct clicking to copy on my blog, Flickr and Facebook). Nevertheless, that doesn't stop someone from using my imaging (screen shots circumvent that pretty easily, that's why I've started watermarking my images). Anyway, I wonder if at that place's a way to search images whose URLs are unsearchable???

Honey your stuff!

Hmmm I call up I may be completely reckoner dumb. I did what you said for safari users, "Safari users, right click on the image and select Copy Image Address." And still no such luck… information technology's not providing me with an appropriate image link.
Whatever suggestions?

In Chrome I see the option to Copy Image URL.

Thanks so much for this info, Amanda! I am well-nigh agape to do a search as I know many people take and use my photos without permission. It is sad that others feel the need to pass off other's work as their own. :( I detest watermarking my photos and then I guess that is part of the problem. This tip will help me weed out the worst photo stealing offenders.

Thanks so much for this valuable advice, Amanda. I've been seeing lots of bloggers write almost pirating of content and photos lately. Even though I am a picayune blog I know I need to at least watermark my photos. I haven't found a "painless" way to practise it without uploading/downloading each photo to a photograph editing site.
Melissa @ Bless This Mess
Miss Kitty- do you photoshop at all? There is an easy style to make a stamp in PS so that you tin just stamp on your watermark while editing before uploading. It'due south a great petty flim-flam!

Thanks for the tip. I merely did a search on one photograph and unfortunately saw that it was misused on multiple sites. One site is in another linguistic communication and they've watermarked it as their ain! Very bummed. Have'nt even checked other photos. Whatever communication?

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

do yous have a tutorial for that?
cheers you so much
Amanda
If you don't have a web log and can't apply the tutorial above (which shows you how to get the URL from a photo on your blog), you lot can employ a site like Photobucket.com to upload a photo and get the URL.
Anne
Hi Amanda. FYI, there is a pinterest mail out there (wish I had marked it but I didn't) that uses your earlier and after weight loss pics and when y'all click on it it goes to some weight loss site. Didn't look like annihilation I have seen you mention, so you might want to search pinterest if you can.
Amanda
Thanks so much for letting me know, Anne! That is exactly what I've been using this tutorial for. I end upwards 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 it?? If y'all ever see one, just send me the URL and I will report information technology. :)

Jamie

Kim @ In Our Write Minds
I was and so excited about the drag-and-drop option! I tried it in IE and Chrome, but nothing happened. Am I missing a step?
Amanda
Yep, 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 style I look upwards images and have never had an issue. I practise use Google Chrome mostly and never on a MAC. But I recollect I have gotten to work on IE and FireFox. I volition try to figure information technology out for ya.

You always post 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 own use, has renamed the photograph? Or volition it but work if they re-post the photo with exactly the same proper name/URL that information technology originally came with when you lot posted information technology – I hope that makes sense?
Amanda
Swell question Candice! Yes, it will definitely work if the photo has been renamed — It volition even work if the photo has been cropped, resized or fifty-fifty had pocket-size changes made to it like lightened or darkened also.
Candice
That is astonishing! Thanks again for this really absurd info :o)
