Salaam,
Well... im feeling scared and worried, i dont know if i have commited a sin or nit but i know that i did it unknowingly and i knew that it was a sin.
Basically, i went on to google images and typed in something like powerful islamic image (i wanted to upload something positive to facebook), and then i came across a cartoon, i couldnt read it properly and it was of two cartoon men discussing something, i read thinking it was one of those cartoons with a positive joke but it was a cartoon drawing of Muhammed (Peace be upon him) ASTAGH'FIRULLAH when i read muhammed i quickly shut the screen and closed it.
Is this still a sin, will i get punished i never did it intentionally and if i knew it was the prophet (PBUH) i would have closed it...

No, don't worry, you didn't commit any sin. It's very good that you feel this way however; it's a sign of taqwa. You can still do some istighfar to negate any spiritual harm that cartoon might have caused you.
