Pinterest Food for Thought ---- for all of you creative ladies

[Balancing]

I know many of you have copyrights, watermarks, etc...  but you may want to beef up your "image source" data...  here is an interesting blog on this topic and I thought I would share it!

Also provides food for thought for the random pinning that each of us does on Pinterest.  Hopefully, we all can make sure that we credit the right source before we pin just to do our part.  We owe it to our fellow crafter  to provide the right credit for their craft.

I think it is worth the read and the time it will take to click on the link.

Thanks, I actually just had to ask people to remove my Mon-stors because people are posting them to "DIY" boards and "I can Make this" boards. I say hell to the naw, and emailed pinterest.

I need to go through my boards and follow all of the links to make sure they go to the right place. I have pinned some things that don't link to where you think they will.

You may want to consider adding links back to your blog or etsy site on your mon-stor photos... I know you have them copyrighted but that way if someone sees the photo without a credit... they can get back to you.

I think it is a great thing to do.  there are many things that are repins from a board to a board without a link back to the actual tutorial/blog.

The only place they can get the photos is my storenvy. You can't link a pin from FB, thank goodness... Thanks for posting this and the advice, I appreciate this a lot!!
