Doesn't work good enought yet.

Just wondering, do they keep your images when you upload them? I'm a bit unaware of the dangers.

I gave this some more thoughts. This is excellent to see if your artwork/stock images are being used by other people, once it covers the full internet. Simply upload your artwork and search for simularities. Really nice for people on sites like deviantART.

Google has had a 'similar images' search in beta for months. It has some real promise for the images they have indexed.

Try searching for 'jaguar' and click the 'similar images' link below a selection.

Try searching for 'brad and angelia'... when you click on a image with Brad on the left all of the similar results will show him in the same position.
