Hi,

Came across an offensive image that comes up when searching for flooz on Google images.

There used to be a "report offensive images" button, but it is no longer there. Does anyone know how I can do it now?

It's the 3rd image which is offensive:

http://images.google.co.uk/images?q=flooz&ie=UTF-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&sa=N&tab=wi

Anyone help?

The "report images" link is only for the image search OneBox:

Ah ok thanks Alex.

Do you know how we can report images included in Google Image Search?

[put at-character here]David T, They are pretty good at approving or denying requests within about 24 to 48 hours. You won't get an email about it but if you log back into the link above, it will show you the status of your request.

Thanks Colin, I'll check back on the result tomorrow to see if they processed it.
