Any suggestions on how to find the source of a photo?

Asked by syz (36034points) April 23rd, 2008

So I was clicking through Stumble.com, found a site that had a photo I downloaded, and then went along my merry way. Now, on closer inspection, I’d like to find the souce of the photo but I have no idea how to backtrack (I know to bookmark, I just didn’t do it…).

Have you checked your browser history? Also you could check the info/credits of the photo and google for that.

try describing the photo in a search on the following website: http://taggylicio.us/

the site is searches other sites like flickr and photobucket.

it’s worth a shot. good luck!
