Sharing on Pinterest (Resolved)

So that we can provide faster and better support, this forum (the "Public Suggestion Box") has been retired. Instead, please send any suggestions you have to us using the official website contact form.

This allows us to streamline our support system so that we can get to your message much faster. Instead of our support staff having to check three different places (support forum, suggestion box, and contact form messages), they know can respond to all message through one method, with that one method being the official website contact form.

Is it enough to "add" and "save" the review or BOTD to my Pinterest Board, which I have designated for a bookshelf? It seems like when I select my own review to promote, it is a fairly generic ONLINEBOOKCLUB graphic - whereas it seems as if some others feature a book cover. Is there a way to make each of my review shares on Pinterest distinctive?

Sometimes Pinterest will give two or three other possible icons. Did you try a different icon for it to see if it will link to your book as you say? The same thing happened to me once when I was trying to share a book of the day. Onlinebookclub.org said I lost credits because though I shared the book, the icon I chose didn't link back to the book, but to the site.

I have the same problem. I can't share it. I can only share the icon, but not linked to my book review. How to successfully share it on Pinterest?

Insofar as the word 'should' even has meaning, then we must say that the past is exactly as it should be, everything that happened should have happened, and everything that should happen will happen
