- Huntress Reverse Image Search: A Chrome extension I wrote that aids in identifying images in puzzlehunts. The primary feature that distinguishes this from other methods of reverse image searching is the ability to easily crop out a section of an image to search. This lets you reverse image search pdfs, videos, or composited images.
