Default Pinterest- check for images

A couple of people have asked how to check pinterest for their images

Follow the link and then under search type 'Namibia' (or whichever country you are interested in). I have not yet found out how to search directly by name.

I was horrified to note that just one of my shots had been pinned and re-pinned (no credits given) 86 times!


The following link has information about how you can have Pinterest remove your images. I have not tried yet but fully intend doing so.

I ask the admin/owners/moderators to allow pinning from TE to only be allowed on an opt-in or opt-out basis

"Pinterest joins the billion dollar club"

http://www.washingtonpost.com/busine...RWU_story.html

"Pinterest, which lets users create boards of images related to their interests, has become a darling of e-commerce. The company is sending big traffic to online retailers, and it also drives more revenue per click than Twitter or Facebook."

Exclamation Pinterest changes

Hi all,

Due to community feedback, we have implemented the following change:

http://www.trekearth.com/mytrek.php

Go to your profile, and look for the selection "Show Pinterest button?" You may choose whether or not you would like to show the TE Pinterest "Pin it" button below *your* photos.

In addition, if you select "no," it will turn off the functionality of a "Pin it" button that a user has added to his/her browser. Again, this only applies to *your* photos.

We hope that this will allow our members greater control of how their photos are shared via Pinterest.

Thank you for your feedback, and for keeping TrekEarth great.

Thank you, Paul!

I hope this will help to resolve the issue... at least in some way!

I've already turned off the "show Pinterest button" function ...just in case!
