I have heard that there can be major problems with the pictures you 'pin' being illegally used. I don't know any details, but would advice anybody who uses Pinterest to check it out properly before getting too involved.

PC World magazine has an article on this very topic--might be a worthwhile read. Thank you, Lorchen, for raising the issue.

Very interesting - tearing pictures out of a magazine and putting it in an ideas scrap book is one thing, but copying and re-issuing a picture on the web, even if it is your 'scrap book' seems to be a whole different kettle of fish, legally

LadyRags OFFLINE Posts: 1571 Thank you received: 43	http://pinterest.com/ I love this site. It allows me to pin ideas for things I like all in one place. Makes quilt planning fun and for me easier... find colors I like and just pin it to a board. Inspiration is put into collections. If you are on pinterst let me know you pin name so I can friend you.
