At present I'g off the hook. :-D

Amanda and Kevin, Tin 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 woman. It's actually a human being posing every bit her. He has sent some pics that I highly doubt she would want floating around (not 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 learn who she is so that she can be told what the heck is happening to her photos? I just have photos sent to me via electronic mail. If I were in her position, I would want to know.
I tried on google contrary photo search with no luck and tineye with no luck. Thanks for your help. Caitlin

This is awesome. I have my weblog 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 endeavour information technology on my web log- I tried information technology here to see information technology in activeness- only I didn't take to copy the prototype & upload. When I right clicked- it gave me the option in the drop down to simply search image in Google. Which so gave me the same page y'all showed with the results.

Although I too disabled left click on my images then I may have to go to my web albums to endeavour this out.
Heather
Wow. Super-cool tip! Constitute you via Pinterest. Looking forward to following you! :)

Interesting weblog post on the reverse paradigm 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 blog, Flickr and Facebook). However, that doesn't stop someone from using my imaging (screen shots circumvent that pretty hands, that'southward why I've started watermarking my images). Anyway, I wonder if in that location's a fashion to search images whose URLs are unsearchable???

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

thank you you so much
Amanda
If you don't accept a blog and can't utilise the tutorial in a higher place (which shows yous how to get the URL from a photo on your blog), yous can utilize a site like Photobucket.com to upload a photo and get the URL.
Anne
Hi Amanda. FYI, there is a pinterest post out at that place (wish I had marked it merely I didn't) that uses your before and after weight loss pics and when you click on it it goes to some weight loss site. Didn't look similar anything I have seen you mention, so y'all 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 terminate up spending a couple hours every dark combing through search results and Pinterest posts finding the stolen photos and reporting them to Pinterest. I ordinarily report nearly 150 pins per nighttime! Crazy, isn't it?? If y'all ever see 1, just transport me the URL and I will study it. :)
Amanda Dawn

cynthia y
You tin can actually just click the photo whether its on a web page or on your desktop and drag it to the Google search box to practise the same thing. I but learned this trick a few months ago and its amazing
Jamie
Awesome tip! Thank you Cynthia – and Amanda! The drag and drop feature is way better than all that cutting and pasting.
Kim @ In Our Write Minds
I was so excited about the drag-and-driblet option! I tried it in IE and Chrome, but nothing happened. Am I missing a footstep?
Amanda
Yeah, I'thou not sure how authentic 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 only way I look up images and have never had an issue. I practice apply Google Chrome mostly and never on a MAC. But I think I have gotten to work on IE and FireFox. I will attempt to figure it out for ya.

You always post such useful tips Amanda, thanks then much :o) A quick question though – will this work if the person, who has downloaded your photo and "recycled" it for their own utilise, has renamed the photo? Or volition it simply work if they re-postal service the photo with exactly the same proper noun/URL that information technology originally came with when you posted it – I hope that makes sense?
Amanda
Slap-up question Candice! Yes, it volition definitely work if the photo has been renamed — Information technology will even work if the photo has been cropped, resized or fifty-fifty had minor changes made to information technology like lightened or darkened besides.
Candice
That is amazing! Thanks again for this really cool info :o)

Because I sent my picture taken from facebook to my ex-friend on kik a while ago before we argued, and I think she reposted it in some website, only I'm not certain.

This is a bully resource. I belong to a portfolio site where lots of photographers and artists mutter of their stuff being posted elsewhere. Most of information technology is harmless, but occasionally somebody finds their fine art in a Samsung advertizing or some such. A mailing list I subscribe to shared a resource similar to this but requested that listing subscribers keep it to themselves for the fourth dimension being, which was bugging me. At present I'g off the hook. :-D
Robert Connor
What a keen tip and very squeamish site we dearest i!

Actually another great way is to directly upload that images to google images search and and then look for like images which are to your. Google images search is pretty powerful and volition detect all those images which look similar without warring about the naming and You will go all the list of images and places where they are existence hosted.

Matt
Unfortunately this won't work in 99% of cases of image theft. This will only work if the person has shared your prototype to their blog or website. If they right clicked and saved the paradigm like 99% of people do, so upload the epitome this doesn't work. Then it'due south basically useless.

I've ever used tineye.com for this, but information technology's nice to know in that location is another option that might catch things the other missed. I've e'er watermarked my photos, but it's easy to crop those out anymore.

PS. The poser/thief has taken this woman's photograph and created a fake FB page besides. I turned it in as a simulated but it's notwithstanding up.

Caitlin
Amanda and Kevin,
Tin 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 woman. It's actually a human being posing every bit her. He has sent some pics that I highly doubt she would want floating around (not 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 learn who she is so that she can be told what the heck is happening to her photos? I just have photos sent to me via electronic mail. If I were in her position, I would want to know.
I tried on google contrary photo search with no luck and tineye with no luck.
Thanks for your help.

This is awesome. I have my weblog 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 endeavour information technology on my web log- I tried information technology here to see information technology in activeness- only I didn't take to copy the prototype & upload. When I right clicked- it gave me the option in the drop down to simply search image in Google. Which so gave me the same page y'all 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 style. Although I too disabled left click on my images then I may have to go to my web albums to endeavour this out.
Heather
Wow. Super-cool tip! Constitute you via Pinterest. Looking forward to following you! :)
Nilsa @ SoMi Speaks
Interesting weblog post on the reverse paradigm 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 blog, Flickr and Facebook). However, that doesn't stop someone from using my imaging (screen shots circumvent that pretty hands, that'southward why I've started watermarking my images). Anyway, I wonder if in that location's a fashion to search images whose URLs are unsearchable???

Thanks for sharing this useful tip! I checked only one photo from my blog to detect several people who had stolen a whole tutorial from my site… with no link backs or credit given. It was a little discouraging and at the same time very empowering!

Cheers then much for this valuable advice, Amanda. I've been seeing lots of bloggers write about pirating of content and photos lately. Even though I am a footling blog I know I need to at least watermark my photos. I haven't found 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? There is an like shooting fish in a barrel way to make a stamp in PS so that y'all can just stamp on your watermark while editing before uploading. It's a groovy fiddling trick!

One site is in another linguistic communication and they've watermarked information technology as their own! Very bummed. Take'nt even checked other photos. Any advice? I recall I have to go back and get-go watermarking.

Nosotros randomly discoverred someone "grabbed" my facebook background photograph I had taken on my Alaskan cruise from my balcony and posted and and so put on his facebook every bit his groundwork! I judge he thought it was lovely!!! I do not re-mail anything unless it has a "pin it" push on it as I believe that these belong to the person who posts it unless they have given permission by the "pivot it" push button.
Anele @ Success Along the Weigh
I don't know why but I'm scared to do this! LOL
shelly (cookies and cups)
Cool trick! Love all your bloggy tutorials!
janet tobler
how do you upload a photograph to the internet and grab the url?
practise you lot have a tutorial for that?
thank you you so much
Amanda
If you don't accept a blog and can't utilise the tutorial in a higher place (which shows yous how to get the URL from a photo on your blog), yous can utilize a site like Photobucket.com to upload a photo and get the URL.
Anne
Hi Amanda. FYI, there is a pinterest post out at that place (wish I had marked it merely I didn't) that uses your before and after weight loss pics and when you click on it it goes to some weight loss site. Didn't look similar anything I have seen you mention, so y'all 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 terminate up spending a couple hours every dark combing through search results and Pinterest posts finding the stolen photos and reporting them to Pinterest. I ordinarily report nearly 150 pins per nighttime! Crazy, isn't it?? If y'all ever see 1, just transport me the URL and I will study it. :)
Amanda Dawn
Thanks Amanda! It'southward always fun learning something new, geeky, and elementary! To remember, this has been hither all along. Yous'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 drag it to the Google search box to practise the same thing. I but learned this trick a few months ago and its amazing
Jamie
Awesome tip! Thank you Cynthia – and Amanda! The drag and drop feature is way better than all that cutting and pasting.
Kim @ In Our Write Minds
I was so excited about the drag-and-driblet option! I tried it in IE and Chrome, but nothing happened. Am I missing a footstep?
Amanda
Yeah, I'thou not sure how authentic 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 only way I look up images and have never had an issue. I practice apply Google Chrome mostly and never on a MAC. But I think I have gotten to work on IE and FireFox. I will attempt to figure it out for ya.
Willow

Averie @ Averie Cooks

Candice
You always post such useful tips Amanda, thanks then much :o)
A quick question though – will this work if the person, who has downloaded your photo and "recycled" it for their own utilise, has renamed the photo? Or volition it simply work if they re-postal service the photo with exactly the same proper noun/URL that information technology originally came with when you posted it – I hope that makes sense?
Amanda
Slap-up question Candice! Yes, it volition definitely work if the photo has been renamed — Information technology will even work if the photo has been cropped, resized or fifty-fifty had minor changes made to information technology like lightened or darkened besides.
Candice
That is amazing! Thanks again for this really cool info :o)
