  Hello,

  A friend of mine was upset that pictures of her ended up on my blog. I’ve removed them from the Photos tab (Permanently deleted), but the pictures still show up in google images. I believe these are thumbnail versions generated by WordPress, but I can’t find a way of deleting them.

  Please advise.

  Can you provide a list of image URLs we can check? We can make sure they are all deleted from our side first and then to remove them from Google, you can either wait for them to get removed by Google normally (should happen on it’s own eventually) or you can try making a Google removal request through Google Webmaster Tools.
