How you guys handle duplicate images?

Especially those re-sized thumb images.

Now the only thing we can do is use eyes to compare it.

Does anyone have better solution?

Can you run fdupes from the command line? In Ubuntu (or other unix based OS) type the following.

man fdupes

You may be able to install it using the following command.

sudo apt-get install fdupes

Note that I strongly recommend that you do not use this for deletion.

Wow, thank you!

Special:FileDuplicateSearch may also be useful. (I'm surprised there isn't a special page for listing all files with (local) duplicates. All the info is already in the database).
