Title: Google Image search better than TinEye?
Post by: CD123 on September 13, 2012, 14:27: Was looking for one of my images which really sold well lately, hoping I might pick up somewhere it is used on the web. Loaded the image into TinEye and.... zero found. Not even on the 12+ RF websites it is located on!

Loaded the image into Google Image Search and... 3 pages full of results.

I thought TinEye was supposed to be the expert dedicated search engine for this?

IME, GIS is much better.

Assume you use a Tineye add-on (menu bar). Have not used that, just worked from the main site.
