Is PinPics down
We have a GREAT Programmer, who although not being a Pin Person, is in tune to what we want/need.
PinPics is going on 19 years old and it can not keep up with everything new in the Technology World. We
have to have a NEW Database. What we have with the old one is what we have until the new one is up
and running.
Trade Requests have started coming through to my Yahoo mail again, I do not know what changed.
(they were not coming through at all and we had to login to PinPics to see them)
You will have to continue to Send 1 Request to 1 Trade Partner at a time until we have the new system up.
There are wonderful new features in the New PinPics. Members who do not log in in 30 days
will automatically be set to inactive so no Trade Requests will go to them. This should help cut
back on the discouraging 'no reply' to TAs. We may even have some sort of system that will
Grade us as Traders and we will be demoted, for lack of a better word, if we don't reply. I am
hoping for a Drop Down box with Checks for Reasons to decline a Trade to make it easier on
everyone.
Example;
This is not a fair trade and I can not make it.
I am holding this pin for a specific Trade, Thank You.
This trade is not high on my Wants List so I will pass.
It may even block traders who daily send you the same Trade Offer even though you have politely declined.
We have an ongoing discussion concerning what we as Traders NEED in PinPics, if you'd like
to join us.
Our New Database is a Couple of Months Out .. what do you think ... ???

thanks for the info that is what I just didHello, the link to the Forum has not worked since TapATalk took over .. I actually had this written and
erased it because I thought that is what you meant, fuzzy then thought I may not know lol
You just have to bookmark it and use the link Pin Pics Forum - PinTalk
FYI, I hate having TapATalk and I have never signed up to it but I am able to post there.
It is just wrong to me that someone says You HAVE to do this .. and I am stubborn, it's
a family trait lol
I have no idea why you can't post on it …
I was actually going to mention this too. The forum link seemed to work under http. But not now that it seems to default to https. Just hangs.Hello, the link to the Forum has not worked since TapATalk took over .. I actually had this written and

Agreed I’ve seen this too. Might be comming from an ad but it is annoying that’s for sure.Every time I go to the forum I get hijacked. I end up at some "Amazon" congratulations you won something site. Then I have to close the window and try again.
I agree with this. Or, at the very least, I don't want to be "demoted" for not responding to a single trade request. If the number was higher, I might be okay. But even so, life does happen. I do like the "inactive" idea as well as the feedback system and drop down block for TA. Though something more neutral like slbrabham said would be ideal.Collecting and trading pins is a hobby, I don't think it is right that we can suddenly have our reputation as a trader called into question because we didn't have the time to respond to every trade request. This hobby is too time consuming.

PinPics seems to be sort of working today. I was able to log in. I still am not 100% confident that the trade messages are working.
When I logged in a couple of days ago, I had two requests in the box. I never got notifications at my email address. I did check my spam folder too, and nothing.
I respoded to the trade requests, but have had no answers. Kind of weird in my opinion that someone wants to trade and when I say yes, I do not hear back from them at all....
So, if any of the following user names look familiar, I am trying to respond to your trade requests!!

Anyone else having issues logging into pinpics? It won’t let me reset my password (I’m not getting the email). I just messaged the Pinpics Ambassador but I’m curious if I’m the only one having these issues. It’s been going on for a while now but today I had good reason to log in!
