Like finding a needle in a cesspool, I know

I want to find an image that was once posted on 4chan (/b/). Am I out of luck? (Some NSFW details within).
I am not a frequenter of 4chan. At all. Especially "/b/". But I have a strong desire to find a specific photographic image that was posted at some point to /b/. All that I know about the photo is that it is was taken of a man's erect penis and had the name "Jessie" or "Jess" written on it in black marker. I do not know when it was posted and I'm pretty certain (I would think, anyway) that the poster posted it anonymously. Is there any possible way to find it? Throwaway: blackmarkerman@gmail.com

I'm sort of ashamed to show my rather extensive knowledge of /b/, but you could go back to /b/ and start a thread that says something similar to "/r/ing the picture of the erect penis with Jessie or Jess written on it." Do that either in /b/ or on /r/, which is the request board, and you might get a result.
Good luck?

Ahh, I forgot that the site was restructured, so you want either Random (/b/) or Request (/r/)

go back to /b/ and start a thread... and you might get a result.
With respect, /b/ is a pretty rough-and-tumble world. People might be kind enough to honor your request, or they might instead post some cock pics.

I'm aware, I'm on /b/ a ton. Besides, he wants a picture of penis, just a rather specific one. He asked if there was a possible way to get it. This is the best way that I know of. Jesus. Did you read the question?

/r/ is the requests board. Between /r/ and /b/ you might get your request answered.

When you post it, especially in /b/ since it moves pretty quickly, type "noko" without the quotes in the email field to be returned to your thread instead of page 0 of /b/, lest you may never find it again.

Yeah, your best bet is to request it in /b/ or /r/. You could trawl 4chanarchive.org and /rs/ as well.
