Looks like rentmen and rent.men have disabled photo search

[dutchal]

Wonder why?

"Photo search" ?

 

Odd... I just successfully did an image search on the first RM profile that popped up (a Platinum member that was in the front page).

What do you mean by "photo search?"

[MikeBiDude]

The usual methods (google image search for me) still lol working.

 

Please expand on your comment.

You can't click on the full-sized photo. You have to right-click the thumbnail and do "search google for image" on Chrome.

When I right-click on the thumbnail (Chrome on Mac) on a Rent.Men ad I'm unable to search. I've been using a convoluted method to access the pics (view page source) and have been performing image searches from there for a while. It's not for the faint of heart, but for the web-savvy it's just an extra couple of clicks.

Try using the rentmen.com site instead?

Turns out a google update on Friday-Saturday has interfered with photo searching for many, and it still isn't working for some.

Works for me using Safari

Yes, it only works on rentmen. Doesn't work on rent.men. Also, on rentmen you can drag and drop the thumbnails, whereas on rent.men you can't.

I’m new to all of this so school me... what would the purpose of doing an image search be?

To ferret out and discover fake pics...unfortunately it’s quite common

[Guest Listen for the pop]

THANKS!!

Are there any notable fakes on there? I’m mostly interested in tall tops?

Dozens and dozens....put up a post asking about someone you see that you’re interested in. Be SURE and include their Rentmen link and you’ll get info

Tooooo many. Just search for the word “fake” on this forum and you have 100s of posts. If you are looking to check someone in particular, people in the deli will often do that for you, but you can do a simple reverse image search yourself using google.

I use the app Reversee and the pro version ($3.99) will search Google, Bing and Yandex (which is usually the most fruitful). It's got lots of neat features like scraping an entire page of all images and allowing you to search one-by-one. This works on a RentMent profile page - > paste in the URL for a profile and it will display all the profile pics and you can search for each one on all three search engines.

Hey, I have been able to image search with Google but have not had much luck with matches until I Stargate using the Google image search extension!

Thanks Keith, I love it. Got the pro version, actually, people who build good quality apps like this can get a few dollars as an incentive to keep it going, and improve it even more.

I’m not seeing where in Reversee I can paste a Rentmen URL? Maybe I’m missing a step? Yes I bought $3.99pro version

There is a paste button. It pastes anything you have in you clipboard (most recent “copy”)

Tried that, Says “no images in clipboard...” or something similar? I’ll play with it.

 

EDIT: got it! Private browser I was using wasn’t copying URL to Clipboard properly. Chrome and all copy/paste the URL fine

Another way to access all the photos in a profile (at least on a PC - I don't know if this also works on a mac):

 

1) Open the profile in question, and right-click on any of the photos

2) Click on "view page source" in the menu that comes up. This will open a new page.

3) On the new page, scroll down to around line 575 or so (line numbers are on the far left)

4) You will see a series of clickable links - each is to one photo on the profile. Clicking on a link will open a new page with that pic, which can then be copied/saved, or searched for. (Private photos are included in this if you already have access to them and have opened them.)

you can look at the page source and get the photos...

Yep, that's the "convoluted" method I use. You can search the source for ".jpg" and you should find get to the list of pic links within two or three jumps. I hesitate to make such recommendations on a page where some folks struggle with cut and paste for web page links.
