Well, it does still work if you just use Google as described in BCP's post above. For instance, here is a thread that Russ earlier posted a photo named "680828-summit-arrival.jpg "
[ngdiscussion.net]
Not only does Google find the thread/image, but if you click on the"Images" tab (available after the Google search results are returned) you can see ALL the images Russ has posted with the filename prefix of "680828". Just look through the images returned to find the one you want and click & follow the option presented to find the thread the image was posted to. Here is the search phrase I used:
site:ngdiscussion.net 680828
Type or paste that phrase into a Google Search box, then click on the "Images" tab.
For reference, here is the photo:
