I've been getting the emails about this all night - sorry you feel that way.  Sounds like you're upset with zazzle over something?

Yes but there are plenty of other companies to promote.

😪So sad to here this... I hope all is ok 🖤 Loving all you have done for the Zazzle community. I hope you can find solutions and come back at some point 😘 Take care xxx

Thank you for your kind words. We are okay. We don't know how much our promoting was helping others. We only got one referral. Maybe Zazzle was  managing to get the referrals. We are sorry if we took sales away from anyone but our decision probably will never change. It isn't just promoting that we have quit doing. We aren't posting at all. We quit because something happened twice in a short period that has happened previously. lt was obvious targeting but it caused us to cool off as we were told to do. I have an answer to someone's question. For most people, we would answer privately. Then, as of yesterday, I saw something Zazzle should be concerned about, but oh, well. 

that sounds ominous. 

I only design as love that I can do that here on Zazzle. So although I push out and sometimes support others via social marketing I am sure the promoting side of things is much more complex and challenging for those who mainly go down that route. Wishing you all the best in whatever avenue you choose to take now and in the future ❤️ Take care xxx Never say never though 😘

Wow! We really don't understand Dee Mac kudoing our announcement that we are no longer promoting other Zazzle creators but that should just about sum everything up.

If you are concerned about the "Z" --  NOTHING appears in a product pin that has a "Z" on it.  Have you actually seen one if you go in to try and buy something?  I think you confusing things that are protected vs. standard products for sale.  There is not one pin that I have on Pinterest that has a Z on it and not one that I have seen on all of the site.  Where have you seen one on Pinterest or another public site?
