Blocking images from Google
When a user clicks on a result in Google Images search results, they are directed to a Google results page that includes two frames. The upper frame contains the image's thumbnail, and the bottom frame displays the referring web page (the page on which the image appears). If you do not want your site used as the referring page - for example, because you want to avoid traffic - you can add a noimageindex meta tag to the header of your web page.

For example:
<meta name="robots" content="noimageindex">

or
<meta name="googlebot" content="noimageindex">


Note that the images on the page may still be included in the image index if they are linked to by other pages.
