    I'm new, so don't tell me off for posting in the wrong place, I'm a bit confused here with all topics!
    My question is, how do I get my pictures listed in google images?
    My website is doing ok, but none of the pictures show up in Google images.
    They're named ok, but I searched for them and they just don't show up.
    I've also ticked "Enable enhanced image search" in Google webmaster tools.
    Can anyone here help?:confused:

    just add/describe your images (with your target KWs) in alt tags

    First review: http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/matt-video-alt-attributes-for-images/

    This is an excellent video by Matt Cutts on images and getting that ranked in Google Images. Key things to remember, use a "accurate" description of your image in the alt="" html tag and use the correct filename for that image, make the filename related to the image itself.
