Helps when it is the same photo of the exact same board -- including shadows and scratches and smudges (except that dimensions were overlaid on the ad's picture).That took literally 5 seconds to find.

Well, that's the beauty of many Chinese boards – often they are sold by many companies and some of them have more details. This can lead to a schematic pretty quickly at times.Helps when it is the same photo of the exact same board

In what way?I think we're being duped.

It was just an observation that, by whatever coincidence, the photo that the TS used happened to be the same photo used by the site the quick search found. I'm not sure how you come to the conclusion that it was somehow a scolding interrogation. If there was any thinly veiled meaning at all, it would be related to how successful the search would have been had the TS posted a picture of their board taken with a phone from a completely different angle in completely different lighting conditions with a completely different background. The curiosity was purely on the capabilities of the image search algorithms used by the search engine.Well, that's the beauty of many Chinese boards – often they are sold by many companies and some of them have more details.

I guess an alternative to a quick search is lecturing that getting stuff from China is a waste of time and you won't be able to find documentation and it will be wrong if you do. Too many answers here (in my not-so-humble opinion) are scolding interrogations with a thinly veiled "how can you be so stupid". If people knew the answers, they wouldn't be asking the questions, and if the questions don't make sense, some explanation may go a long way. [/stepping off soapbox]
