I even started doing the google image search for images that aren't properly linked. It drives me nuts to be directed to nowhere!

I should start checking. petuniasandpearls on "Do you check links before pinning?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-check-links-before-pinning#post-164025 Sun, 20 May 2012 17:47:01 +0000 petuniasandpearls 164025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I usually do, but sometimes if I'm in a hurry I forget...usually I go back later and check it though. I actually go through an edit my pins (like a recipe I made and hated, or a project I completed or I bought something) so I usually end up checking them at some point. I try not to just pin everything I find, I pin for a reason!

I also hate dead pins or the ones that lead me to the homepage.

So many dead end links that I feel I need to even tell people. :/ MsMini on "Do you check links before pinning?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-check-links-before-pinning#post-162458 Thu, 17 May 2012 23:18:20 +0000 MsMini 162458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Yes! Nothing worse than dead-end pins!

It drives me crazy when pins are not properly linked! It defeats the whole purpose of Pinterest. I've noticed lately too some ppl are linking to spam pages. Then people unknowingly relink that. I literally spent 20 minutes the other day looking for the original pin that was not linked to a spam site. mrskc on "Do you check links before pinning?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-check-links-before-pinning#post-161955 Thu, 17 May 2012 18:39:56 +0000 mrskc 161955@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Most of the time I will check that it's linked properly. I'm like you and hate clicking on something that doesn't lead to the right place.

It annoys me to click on the dead end links too. I've become a little OCD about my boards. They have to be organized and they have to work! mediagirl on "Do you check links before pinning?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-check-links-before-pinning#post-161941 Thu, 17 May 2012 18:36:11 +0000 mediagirl 161941@https://boards.hellobee.com/ When you like something on Pinterest, do you make sure the link is valid before you re-pin? I hate it when I click on a pin and either it takes me no where or it takes me to the website homepage. If I really like the item, I'll find the page where it originally came from and pin that. Do you check your Pinterest links before pinning?
