I can pin just fine to Pinterest but when I look at what I pinned I can see the product fine in the upper right hand corner is see my profile picture and can click on it and then I can see my list of my account information.

Assuming you have an account at Pinterest, log in. 
Go to product page. 
Look for share icon at top right of product. This appears next to heart icon.
Choose the Pinterest option. 
Choose one of your Pinterest boards and post your link. 


I also do Postcrossing!


Thank you 

Do I use the URL or link for Pinterest I think that's my problem. Thank you.

Thank you for your help just have one question do I use the copy link or copy HTML. Thank you for answering my questions.

@Deb1 

if you are creating your own pin - copy the link and paste that in the destination link on pinterest  when "Create a Pin"

If you are just sharing to pinterest without creating your own pin, you can just press the share tool's Pinterest logo.

What do you see when you go to the product page? Do you see a Pinterest button? 

I also do Postcrossing!

I can see the following can the people who look at my pins see this too.  When I click on something I pinned I can see it. I am pinning from the product screen itself.

@Deb1  what you are looking at here is your zazzle account page. People on pinterest can't see that.

The two sites are separate entities

this is your zazzle profile

this is what the pinterest profile looks like

Once you pin something - you're still on zazzle.

If you want to see your pins, to need to go to pinterest.com directly and log in there (with your pinterest log in - not your zazzle log in)

Thank you

BTW, Pinterest does have Help pages for this kind of thing. Perhaps you could educate yourself further from there?

Sorry to bother you, I did my research, and it is not clear enough please just don't bother yourself with me. I have a 2-year degree in legal office systems. I just not sure about some of Pinterest as everything in life I was not born with all knowledge. Again, sorry to bother you please just ignore me.  Have a wonderful day.
