->> I'm still trying to figure out TinEye. Seems like agreat idea, but having to search on a url doesn't do much for me. Maybe I'm just confused as to what it is supposed to offer me. What I would like to see is something like TinEye that I can put in a keyword or phrase, and maybe a date or a photographers name and have it find all the uses. With over 15,000 images searchable on PS, entering url's would take a staff of people.
So, just what should I expect TinEye to be able to do for me? |

->> Alan, Tineye searches PHOTOS. Not keywords. It searches images themselves.
Words or images are just binary strings to a computer, and it is not the words associated or around or embedded within an image that Tineye uses for matches. It is the actual photographs themselves. So, even if someone strips the IPTC and keywords, and puts your photo on a page with words in Chinese, Russian, or Tagalog, Tineye will be searching for the image itself.
Tineye is awesome. I love it.
(And just to be clear, you are right-clicking on an image itself to get that asset's unique URL, not the page-level URL that the shot resides on for your Tineye searches, right? And on the subject of Right-Click, their Firefox plug-in is one of my favorite add-ons!) |

->> Thanks Jack. I'll checkout the plugin. I'm sure there is some good in this product. I must just be a little dense. Maybe the plugin will make it work for me.
I tried using the image source url provided by PS of an image I know is also on SIKids. Tineye didn't find it. Then I reversed and used the url of the images from properties of the image from SIKIDS and it didn't find the image on PS - or the one other website I know it is on.
I gotta be doing something wrong. |
