Hi,
I noticed a drop on my visitors. I tried to use google images and found that now google does not show the source website. Just the image. Anyone knows when that change was made?
thanks

    Hi OkyNet,

    I also noticed this change. According to the official Google search blog the changes was launched 1/24/13.

    Instead of sending you over to a whole new page to preview an image, you'll see a preview of the image in your search results.

    Google is making it easier for people to view your images without ever visiting your page. While they still are calling themselves a "search engine," they are really delivering content stolen from you on pages that contain their advertising.

      ...with a teeeeeeeeensy weeeeeeensy tiny disclaimer of "image may be subject to copyright". PFFFFF:rolleyes:

      And so it shall continue, the masses using Google images to steal copyrighted image content from unsuspecting websites. Multiple Internet marketing "products" even teach le ole rip off a website's pictures via Google image search shortcut.

      With the current reading comprehension disability plaguing the planet, teeeeeeeeensy weeeeeeeeensy disclaimers mean not a thing.

      Heck even GIGANTIMONTROUS disclaimers don't mean a thing. There are still people who think it's ok to use anything you want as long as you give credit. And I'm not even kidding.
