    Hi Sportsgirl are we supposed to pin a picture of our fashion style as well as our place or just our place? x

    Hi TheTeam, when you're finished you need to submit your URL in the form here: http://www.sportsgirl.com.au/competitions/competition-my-place-on-pinterest/ No one else will be able to see your URL, just us! Hope this answers your questions. :) Hi foxyfool, we want to see who you are, so if that includes some fashion inspiration then feel free to pin those pics too! You can mix it up as much as you like! :) xx

    this comp is so fun! totally agree with lebonbon about getting rsi or carpal tunnel syndrome from excess pinning :p also I'm wondering if people are allowed to repin your pins from your entry to their entry? :\
  • azziii
    said this on Wednesday 23 May 2012, 06:42 PM
    because I been seeing it happen a lot :O
  • missdaydreamer

    Hi sportsgirl, will every pinterest get looked at that has entered? Also how do you write "My Place" on your page? :)
  • sportsgirl
    said this on Thursday 24 May 2012, 09:03 AM
    Hi azziii, yes - that would be OK for people to re-pin other pins as long as people aren't copying whole boards because then we don't get to see who you are! And missdaydreamer, absolutely, we will be looking at every single entry - it's so much fun! You need to create a new pinboard and title it "My Place" to start with. :) xx
