		<description><![CDATA[So, I have lots of photos, and some are duplicated on several web-sites, with no reference to the original source. I want to detect matches, so I can move them (and their associated meta-data) all to a single <a href="http://www.somethinkodd.com/oddthinking/2008/06/12/online-photo-db-stage-3-identify-possible-solutions/">yet-to-be-determined</a> destination.

But here's the snag. Some of the photos have been made into different sizes and qualities for web-viewing. It would save me time if I could automatically detect this. I need an equivalent to SoundEx that works on images, so images have the same hash even if they are resized.

How would you do that?  If you answered "Google it, and find what the standard solution is", you might be smarter than me. This article is about what I did instead.
