Google Images tripping over TXP + TimThumb

I am using Timthumb along with TXP, and I noticed that Google Images is leading my visitors to URLs like this:

http://www.example.com/images/134.jpg&h=150&w=150

This results in a 404. This would work fine, though:

http://www.example.com/images/134.jpg

Here is the original way these images are presented to Google via TXP + Timthumb:

http://www.example.com/timthumb.php?src=http://www.example.com/images/134.jpg&h=150&w=150

Do I need to use something like an .htaccess rewrite to fix the 404s? Thanks!

Re: Google Images tripping over TXP + TimThumb

wierd – I have seen some working on Google Images using timthumb.php with full url path – but mostly using wordpress so don’t know if they are using trickery

I’m sure you have, but are you using & for your & in the url?

SLIR does work in Google Images, but it hasn’t been updated in a few years – still works on my sites though…
