Anxiety is not permanent, it’s a temporary feeling. The more you resist it, the harder it’s going to hit you, instead try to accept the feeling. Anxiety is trying to tell you something; there might be a feeling bottled up like sadness, or maybe you’re experiencing a lot of stress.

5 years agoIt’s really stupid that you create these images and then get all pissy when people pin them on Pinterest, then do a DMCA takedown. What’s the point if people can’t save them and look at them? How lame.

5 years ago AUTHORI don’t mind people pinning them, but linking them to YOUR site is a copyright violation. It’s plain old theft.
Pinterest only strikes people who use other people’s images and link them to their own or a third-party site, if you happen to repin one of these they will only remove the content, not strike you.
I work many hours a week on my images. People misusing them hurts my business and that’s why I take action. I want to continue making these images, but they are for people to look at, get inspired by. They are not meant for other people to promote their site and business. They can make their own images or hire someone like everyone else.
I’m very thankful for people Repinning my images, but the right way to do it is to REPIN from my site or Pinterest so the original URL stays with the image.
I hope I’ve given you a better understanding as to why I need to file these DCMA take-downs; It’s literally to protect my hard work.
