I was asked in the Spa forum how I'd found the source of some (apparently stolen) pictures in a provider's ad. The answer seems like it might be of broader interest. These are free and easy:

Google image search. [ur]http://www.google.com/imghp?hl=en&tab=wi[/url]

Google --> "Images" --> click the camera icon in the search window.

Enter a URL or drag a picture into the dialog box.

Tineye http://www.tineye.com.

Enter a URL or upload a picture.

If you do find the original, check the timestamp. Some of those pictures are 10 years old.
