A subscriber of the Editorialphoto Yahoogroups asked the community in general: "How can I protect my site and my images (the main concern) from being listed by the Google Image Search?"
This question has a special history. Besides the tricky questions where your images are stored physically, if they had been copied to another server and if the owner or company behind the indexed server has paid for the usage of your photos (see the Editorialphoto discussion group; note: your membership must be approved) a reader responded: "Google has a section on how to prevent your images from being cataloged, and how to remove image from the search service from servers you don't have control over."
This procedure is also working with other internet image search engines for private consumers like f.e. PicSearch (1; 2 - don´t confound it with PicScout).
