    having trouble finding sauce (image source)? got a new high score and want to prove it to your friends? WELL NOW YOU CAN!!!!! with the new website called tineye.com is a reverse image search engine! you upload a photo and it searches bilions of webpages all around the world that have the same photo! it also can get photos that are 50% similar.

    you don't understand. tineye is a reverse image search. you upload a screenshot and it searches through bilions of webpages looking for that very same pic or something similar. my brother proved that he beat guitar hero on expert because of this

    Oh, a search engine that compares...

    God and i thought my trophy whoring was bad, I might as well search for that pic of yours that you posted and see if there is any explicit ones around.

    Pointless in my opinion.

    sometimes its too accurate-

    if i want more images that are slightly different its tougher to use..

    somewhat useful for identifying single image source, harder for finding more of a person, object etc.

    for example, one pic at a certain angle, will show perfect results yes; all the same damn angle, identical pics, maybe a better resolution, but practically useless otherwise...

    hope they make it so that the image is compared to others and find a match...
    cause i believe what they are doing is searching by name...
    which lets face it, you can rename, or even use the prntscreen option on the keyboard....

    That is very difficult to do and very expensive.

    I think the Gov. may be the only ones with this technology... :(
    But, if someone were willing, I think that they would make some money off of it.

    The website is useful for stalking. I'm not even joking.

    Not really- you need to have a pic to start with and the results are too accurate- its not like face recognition which would be way better-
