Just curious, what forum?They keep saying in the forum that it was beta tested and none of these issues came up. Apparently all the problems have taken them by surprise.
My only guess is that the testers weren't actual users/pin traders, so they didn't know what was missing.
Pin Talk, on PinPics.com.Just curious, what forum?
That message shows the trader's actual name, but if you click on the icon that looks like a paper organizer, that message should tell you their username. Hope that makes sense.I am struggling with the messaging and trading.
I have received a few trade offers for which I would like make. But I need to hover over the eye icon to see who sent it and when I try to look them up to see if we can have a multiple trade the member database can't find them. This is totally making me super nervous as I have never been offered these trades and I'm not sure if the members exist or not. It's like I'm getting phantom trade offers
Great scot! You're totally right! Okay I feel better knowing this.That message shows the trader's actual name, but if you click on the icon that looks like a paper organizer, that message should tell you their username. Hope that makes sense.
gap? Do you mean all of the more recent pins that were never added?I’ve been playing around with it but the HUGE gap in its pin base makes it currently impractical to use..

It is the "compare" feature. And yes - it is not there right now. Good news . . . it is currently being worked on and one of the three things they are actively getting worked on now, along with the new message system that is hopefully being put in later this week! I totally agree . . . It is needed! Right now, the best you can do is try and find your pin and click the "what pins can I get" and see what is shown and then reverse it, and see what they want by going through one of their pins that you want and seeing what you can offer.There used to be a way to see who has a pin on your wants list and a way to see if any of your listed trade pins matched their want list. I can see the other persons entire wants list, not just the pins that match. I don't have time (patience) to scroll through 1200 wants for each person that has a pin I'm looking to get. Anyone know if I'm missing something?
Pinpics is quickly losing my interest and loyalty. The features they needed to fix, they didn’t. Instead they added fluff and a new layout and pretended it was fixed. Bleh
Just remember all the other times things like this have happened and laugh.Pinpics is quickly losing my interest and loyalty. The features they needed to fix, they didn’t. Instead they added fluff and a new layout and pretended it was fixed. Bleh
Hee hee, i did something a little different. I rebelled and went back to the older pinpics site and experienced the way things used to be back from 2000 forward through the takeover. I know it doesn't do much for today but there was something so satisfying about being able to go back and use the old interface. And before anyone asks no the trading features etc do not work on the archived site but you can look through all the groups of pins and whatever pins were "new" on the day it was cataloged and for me this was so satisfying. (Here's a view from Dec 2009). I have a fond place in my heart for the old purple interface, nothing against those who like the newer stuff thoughJust remember all the other times things like this have happened and laugh.
I have on the old pinpics site. Have not been successful on pintradingdb, could be error on my part though.Has anyone traded on Disney pin database before and had success

By the by i got an email from PP earlier about a live zoom you could register for (only 100 people) with Scoop. Just in case anyone was interested check your email they say once its full its full.

I've sent a fair number of messages on PTDB but only ever received two replies. And like @stratasfan said, those messages were letting me know that the pins were not actually available.Has anyone traded on Disney pin database before and had success
