Ultra High-Res NBA Pics on Google!

Postby J@3 on Fri Mar 17, 2006 9:09 pm

I just discovered this, it might come in handy for some people. Here's what you do...

1: Open Google, go to Images (duh)

2: Type in the first/last or both names of the player you want, after that type "epochtimes" and make sure you have the "Large Images" tab clicked... you might have to do that AFTER the initial search, but whatever:

Image

For this Tim Duncan search I got 8 pics, ranging from 747x1200 to 2170x3000 (!!). These pictures are enormous, not all of them are that great but there are a few good ones in there.

Alternatively, if you enter the words Getty Images instead of a players name with epochtimes after it, you'll get a huge range of massive-res pics of random things.

I don't care if you believe me but I already knew this. It's a nice site but the pics are almost all old and kind of blurry. And very limited.

Because Carmelo sucks too much to have his own pictures. Just like Shaq. :mrgreen:

Nice find.


It kinda bothers me whenever somebody makes a new post and to most people its new and then comes that one guy who is like "Awesome but I already know about it." Who cares man. Its as if they try to disparage the find.

Oh well, let me be quiet cuz I'm not even sure if I havent done this once or twice.

Nope because IMO the site sucked. They didn't have the pics of last year's playoffs though, only pics like this:
