PinbooruBot is a Discord bot used for identifying pins.
If a server has PinbooruBot enabled, simply attach a picture of a pin (or reply to a picture of a pin), and include "!identify" in your message. PinbooruBot will do its best to try to identify the pin in the picture.
PinbooruBot is not perfect, but is always getting better. Here are some tips on increasing chances of identification:
1. Make sure only one pin is visible in the picture.
2. Make sure the background of the picture is a single uniform color (black preferred). Cork can work as well, but can sometimes have issues.
3. Make sure there is nothing else in the picture except for the pin with a uniform background. No shadows!
4. Try to get as little glare on the pin as possible, while lighting it as evenly as possible.
5. Try to make sure the lighting is neutral and not warm or cold (or worse: colored/filtered).
6. Crop the photo so that the pin takes up almost the entire space.
