Needs Help: Administrivia.Images Without A Source

Go To

Here's the place to inquire about pages whose images aren't potholed to anything. Note that the source might also be in the caption, a commented-out note, linked in any previous threads, or specified on an Image Source subindex, so please check these before posting here.

Google Image Search, Tineye, and SauceNAO are good resources.

Images Without a Source lists the pages that have been discussed in this thread but haven't been sourced yet. Once a source is found for an image, please add it to the appropriate Image Source pagenote  and remove it from Images Without a Source.

About Images and Copyright covers our general policies about image use; see here for more details and Image Pickin' forum policies. It's always a good idea to link images to their original versions and (when available) providing a link to the artist's site when they are located, especially if we're given permission to use an image.note 

     Old OP 
There's quite a few Images Without a Source that could be replaced by spending just a few minutes in an art or spreadsheet program. This would be much easier than trying to track them down or finding a replacement.


Edit: Black Box, Blown Across the Room, Double Jump, The End, Friday Night Death Slot, Lies, Damned Lies, and Statistics, Horny Vikings, Rump Roast, Stock Femur Bone, Surprise Slide Staircase, Treasure Map, and Visible Silence have been replaced.

Cat Vs. Human webcomic according to the index.[up]

The art style matches, but having skimmed the entire catalogue there, that exact image is nowhere to be found. Also doesn't look the the artist has any recent online activity.

Mountain of Food? Tineye turned up absolutely nothing, there doesn't appear to have been an IP thread, and it's listed as "Photography". Do we have permission?

It originates from this page for this place, although the exact image is no longer on the page itself.

Disabled in the Adaptation images weren't listed on their respective source index pages. Now they are.

FFR, is there a standard changelog description we like to use for that?

Anyone know where Magic Realism is from? I tried Tineye, but none of the links were working for me.

Google Lens result[up]: [1]

Apparently it's a book cover for an edition of Pedro Páramo.

Did another search of just that title to confirm and found [2]


That said, that result doesn't jive with the caption of the image, since as far as I can tell, there are no characters named Edith in the book (but I haven't read it, so don't take my word for it).

[up] Since the artist who made it hasn't made a post since 2022, I'm going to assume that we don't.

[up]Found it being sold on Amazon here. Seems to be officially licensed commerial artwork, making it unsuitable for our purposes.


Had a second look. The image is marked "All Rights Reserved". Is that an immediate pull?

Technically most works are “All Rights Reserved”, so that alone isn’t an issue. However, since it’s a standalone image for sale, then maybe it should be replaced.
