Posting Multiple Pics from Pinterest... Fast and Not-so-Dirty!

Find the pic you like on Pinterest and right-mouse click on it.

A drop down menu should appear. At the bottom is the word properties; click on it.

A dialogue box should now appear. Select all where it says URL (address), and then copy and ok.

Go to your desired GoodReads comment field and paste in the URL:

If you are going to post multiple pics, try this to make it faster.

You already know you can click on (some html is ok) in the right-hand corner above a comment box, and it says (by the bulleted word image) you put this and remove the parts in bold:

<img src="http://www.goodreads.com/image..." width="40" height="100" alt="description"/>

And then adjust the width and height. But, since getting rid of that pesky ellipsis (. . .) is so time consuming, and even if I make the height uniform, the width usually needs adjusting, I just make multiple copies of what is left after removing the innards so that it looks something like the following. (Note: I adjusted the uniform height to be 120, but left the width to be adjusted.):

Then I can just copy and paste in the URLs I have copied from Pinterest between the first set of ""s and adjust the second set (the width) accordingly.


Example - of one pic, with URL in bold

<img src="http://media-cache0.pinterest.com/upl..." width="120" height="120" alt="description"/>

Result
