Comment by Michelle S. Hawkins on February 25, 2012 at 12:33pm: Thanks Tina. Everyone who comes to this thread should go to the pages of all the members listed and follow at least one board. Every one can also set up a MyBBWO board and post pictures of other bbwo members. You can also post the picture or link that you want to be pinned. I have had many of my pins repinned. A great form of free advertising.

Comment by Michelle S. Hawkins on February 21, 2012 at 8:51am: Cassandra it won't take long for your invite to come. Think about what you want to highlight in pictures. I do my art, other team members,unusual houses, DIY projects, outer space planets, solar systems(Can you tell I'm a Star Trek fan) Smile. Sit down and start drawing up a list of at least ten subject headings so you have a starting point and won't get overwhelmed. The more eyes or your work the more chance for sales.

Comment by CASSANDRA TOWERS on February 21, 2012 at 12:30am: I sent a request and got put on a wait list. Wow, it's like that I see? Can't wait to join.

Comment by Vanessa Wilson on February 20, 2012 at 11:59pm: On it, love it- join me.. if you need and invite send me and email and follow me.
