Re: Do you have a pinterest business page?
After having a picture posted from my blog onto Pinterest I have had to ask four face painters, one face painting how to, several blogs, even a stock image site to remove said image.
People seem to think images their are stock and free to you.
Photographers hate Pinterest and I see why. Prob going to delete my Pinterest account.

Re: Do you have a pinterest business page?
I don't have a business page but I do have a board on my personal page for face and body painting. I find it's a great way to collect and keep an "inspiration file" like many of us do, online instead of in a folder on my computer. When I post my own work, I just try to put my watermark on it so that people can be directed back to my site if they want to. As long as my mark is on it, I'm happy to see my work spread! Here's my face/body art board which is mostly inspiration from others and some of my own stuff too: http://pinterest.com/gfleener/face-body-painting/

I find photos from my blog on other people's pinterest pages... most are watermarked, but they do not credit properly.

Re: Do you have a pinterest business page?
I just started one.. pinterest.com/mcbodyart
Nothing much yet. just starting..
The way i figure it is, rather than fighting a losing battle of internet wrangling for pictures and for people to know how to properly credit for them. Use these portals to your advantage.
If you can't beat em, join em.. sorta thing
must make water mark

Re: Do you have a pinterest business page?
I thought pinterest pins automatically linked to the source? So even though they might be on someone's board, everyone knows that those boards are just a collection of various pics from the interwebz, and not original photos from the board owner?
At least, that's how I see pinterest.

Re: Do you have a pinterest business page?
It depends on if they are originally pinned from your site, or if you upload them directly
Re: Do you have a pinterest business page?
They do, the problem is the people that are loading pics that are not their own like Shannon stated someone took one from her blog. I would NEVER do that, I simply repin the designs I like so I can use them as inspiration later since I don't always have access to the inspiration folder on my pc. I repin them to my board labeled "Face Paint Inspiration" so noone thinks that I am trying to present them as my own work... Mine is http://pinterest.com/ericasfunnyface/
Re: Do you have a pinterest business page?
Oh, it never occurred To me that you could upload directly to pinterest!
I don't understand why people would abuse it like that... :/

Re: Do you have a pinterest business page?
Ignorance, I think some people just don't realize that some artists spend hours, days or even weeks working out the details of one design and they don't wish for it to be copied or for the photos to be spread like wild fire. Also release forms are important, I usually only paint my own kids or myself for that reason alone. I don't want to piss off anyone's parents. Even if Dad signs a release form for Johnny that doesn't mean Mom is ok with her son's face being on my website. All the kids on my site I have gotten either written or at least verbal consent from their parent. If I ever have a problem I will take them down and apologize. Has anyone ever gotten in trouble for photo usage with verbal/written consent? I know it isn't really air tight...
Re: Do you have a pinterest business page?
Shannon and I are not talking about just crediting back - that's all fine - our images are then taken from places like Pinterest and used on peoples sites showing them as there own. And watermarked or not your images can and will be taken and used elsewhere. Shannon and I have been at this battle a long time. I just found one of my blogs taken in its entirety and posted as someone else's - he actually is claiming my personal experiences along with images of mine and my friends works as his own.
Ethically bad people even face painters who will treat you like crap but be all smiles and nice to other painters will always be around.

Re: Do you have a pinterest business page?
I am using mine as one more place to promote my business. I find my pictures all over pinterest, but no one is claiming them as thier own, as far as I can tell, just repinning them as stuff they like, and since I have started using my web address as my watermark, I am fine with that. It is so wrong for people to use your photos, blogs, experiences, etc to promote themselves. I recently found a photo of an angry bird face painting I did being offered as an option to be put on a mouse pad. There have been unethical people since time began. Somehow though, I am still shocked when I learn what some people do. I weigh the pros with the cons, and for me, the pros win, for the most part.

Re: Do you have a pinterest business page?
I think you just go into your profile and change the name. That is what I did!
Re: Do you have a pinterest business page?
Ok...I'm suddenly understanding how my grandmother felt three years ago when she asked us about "Bookface", but inquiring minds need to know (and I suspect this lack of knowledge is entirely because I don't have teens at home)
WHAT's PINTEREST!?!
(And is there a how-to manual somewhere? *sheepish* )

Re: Do you have a pinterest business page?
It is an odd ball place on the net, kind of like facebook, but you put up pictures of stuff you like (pin pictures-download) and put them up on your page. Other pinterest users have thier own pages, and follow you, and when you post a picture, it is put up on the general board for other people to like, or repin to albums on their pages, of stuff they like.
I use it to keep my latest pictures sorted (because I dont understand my website, and my husband has been too busy to fix it or add pictures, and this is easier than facebook for picture organizing, because you have control of them, they stay where you put them, are organized the way you want...I look at it as one more way to put my name out there.
