The reason I haven't joined is because I think I don't need another thing on the internet that will suck my time rather than anything to do with the copyright issues.

If someone wants to take images, they can and will take them from a blog or website, they don't need Pinterest to do that. I can't see how Pinterest would be allowed to "own" the images and I can see that they will get brought up on that at some point. They can't take ownership of images given to them by someone who is not the original owner, that's just logic. <br /><br />Even so, I can't see how me pinning a picture of my friend's quilt, perhaps not the best photo in the world, will impact anyone. <br /><br />As it's possible to steal images from anywhere, not just Pinterest, then I would expect to find images from photographers etc watermarked across the front.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05167739272302561918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4902503112918417582.post-76940157296554562792012-03-08T09:44:37.989+00:002012-03-08T09:44:37.989+00:00The problem with Pinterest is Pinterest. When you...The problem with Pinterest is Pinterest. When you pin something, they download the entire image to their servers and suddenly they claim to own it. They can and will use them to promote their site and do whatever monetization they wish. As an image-producer that is not OK with me. Yes, it's great that someone might pin a photo of mine and maybe it would mean I get a visit, but what if Pinterest takes the photo and sends the traffic to someone willing to pay them? What am I supposed to do?<br /><br />Just because an image is on the internet doesn't make it automatically a free-for-all who gets to use it.<br /><br />Personally I have had one person take one of my images to promote a class that I had nothing to do with without giving me any credit for the photo. How would that make you feel? How would you react?<br /><br />I know I am raining on the parade, but these are serious issues that affect a great many people. Pinterest is going to be sued, it's just a manner of time.Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07691778613660930779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4902503112918417582.post-10515223485508464692012-03-07T22:45:04.868+00:002012-03-07T22:45:04.868+00:00I was so excited to find people were pinning my st...I was so excited to find people were pinning my stuff.

People get to look at pretty pictures, websites get more exposure, seems win-win to me.<br /><br />As for TV shows, have you watched Gilmore Girls?

I'm just recently hearing about this whole copyright issue and I don't quite understand it either. People who don't want their work pinned can apparently put code on the site so that Pinterest can't link to it, and the rest - I found something of mine pinned and just about did a dance of excitement!<br /><br />Your little Dr. Seuss hat is sooooooooooo adorable - Mr. Hefalump looks quite dashing!<br /><br />I found Downton Abbey late to the game but I'm watching it now from the very beginning - I love it!
