Tips on tracking down originals

Tineye is a new program that searches the internet for images, rather than words. It has become an invaluable system in helping track down the originals. It does require you to sign up but it is absolutely worth it.

Another tip on locating originals can be found on Photobucket. Should you find a copy of a stolen picture on that site, you can check the image information which provides the file name. Often times, the original name has not been changed and it will still contain the name of the artist.
