Are there any good sites out there that you can upload a photo too and it will show you everywhere on the internet that the image appears. Something like http://www.tineye.com/ but it actually works. Thanks fellas

Tinyeye / Google images is prolly the best you are gonna get.
I just thought there would be a better one that actually scans the picture and looks for ones like it instead of just using the file name. And i use filenames i know that are known pics on the internet and the site still doesnt find them. I have heard of a site like this before but i never used it and cant seem to find it
I was under that impression as well. You just upload the picture to imgur, OP, then drag it into the search box on images.google.com.
AFAIK a facial recognition search such as the one you're suggesting would be very illegal.
Why do you need to do something like this anyway? I can't fathom a single (non nefarious) reason to use such a thing.

It would more than likely violate numerous privacy laws, not just in the US. Remember when facebook got their wrist slapped pretty hard when they tried to employ their own facial recognition?

That's not facial recognition, that's similar image searching. Facial recognition violates privacy laws...

Look at the thread title.
EDIT: To elaborate, if such a service was available, the search engine would have to aggregate an absolute shit ton of photos, and store biometric data for each face to return results. You can't do that, it's a big nono that violates privacy and data protection laws.
Imagine China or some other corrupt government reviewing a tape of protesters, taking a snapshot, and using this service to find them.

First of all its not illegal lol.
Second of all im not looking to find somebodys facebook or something. I just want to put a picture (could possibly be a naked woman, could be a giant bale of weed, could be a exotic private jet or car that somebody puts up and looks fake) and i want to see if it has ever appeared on 4chan, or something stupid like that so i know if its legit.
The picture that im testing i know is on a photobucket album and a facebook page. So i know if the website works or not.

Yeah i dont want similiar photos. Like for instance i dont want to put a picture of my brother on there and see every picture that my brother has ever appeared in on the internet. I want to put in a specific photo and see where that exact photo has appeared on the internet, not ones like it.

Yes, it is. What you're suggesting (crossing a picture of someone from photobucket to facebook) is beyond illegal. I suggest you read up on the majority of 1st world country privacy laws and data protection acts.
Basically -
Image matching = peachy
Facial recognition (biometric data aggregation) = super illegal

An image search will search for similar images.
While not specifically meant for facial recognition, certainly if an identical image was used elsewhere then it would likely be picked up as a match.
How close or not it would deem different images is another matter, and might vary hugely based on the context/conditions of each image.
OMG yes Its Called TINEYE just Google it And No it isn't illegal
