Tineye is a very useful website where people can actually upload an image and tineye will look for that image anywhere else on the internet that is indexed onto their site.

Step1 Tineye reverse image search upload page Tineye is a reverse image search. What it does is look for certain things in an image rather than the whole image. For example let's take a popular image and upload it into the box. Step2 Tineye image search results page I uploaded a screenshot of Google's Gmail. Now you can view the search results on the next page. Step3 Tineye reverse image search browser plugin Besides uploading an image there is also a plugin for firefox, internet explorer and a nifty bookmarklet that you can download. please view image for more details. Step4 Tineye right click image search To use the plugin on Firefox just go through the steps required to use it. Then find an image..you can look up any image on the web you see. So, just choose a image or one of your images, right click and then click on the Tineye reverse image search link. Step5 I think that this is the most crucial website any photographer, in fact any person can have in their list of useful websites. Not only does this help you find your images but it helps you find the thief's that steal them. Happy hunting
