Drupal Pinterest Clone

If you include multilingual possibilities (i18n etc) i can contribute. I don't mean to have it ready in 2 languages, but not giving errors for someone who'll try to convert it.
I understand that i speak for many of potential buyers.

Nikos

Count me in anyway for 150$, but please take a look to my previous comment. (i already reserved a suitable domain name for my own use!)
Nikos

Am really excited to see the traffic of the pinterest clone and its one of the useful social media product. Here we are also ready to use this pinterest clone.

Hi Jason,

What's the timeframe on delivery of this model? I have a great idea how this model could be used for sizable audience.

Is it when the money comes in you will build it...Or you're working on it and set to launch at X date?

Thanks!
lisa

I am in, how far have you come? please contact me

It would be interesting if you can have a working demo shown to the public. So, we can buy themes/plugins/installation directly from your end.

Cheers,
yeeloon

I understand what i ask is a little difficult to answer because of many parameters involved, but can you estimate the hosting bandwidth/space requirements of your solution for let's say an example of 1000 pinners and 3-4 pins per pinner?
I also want to ask you to include the invitation functionality, so we can control the initial number of members (pinners).
Another idea is to explore CDN (Content Delivery Network) capability of your solution, if not for videos at least for photos. I'm not sure but may be some Drupal modules for this.

Nikos

Jason,

In what way would a "premium solution" differ from what you're planning now?

Wishing you guys all the best I do not have anything to contribute for now. however I encourage you guys 100%.

I am interested. I will contribute $150 when I see more of the details developed.

Look forward to it.. Hopefully it doesn't took long to complete the actual demo site/distribution.

Thanks Jason!

Dear Sir,
When you will suppose to release ? and about how much ?

This is exactly what I am looking for. I only recently found out about Pinterest [I recently came out from under my rock.]
Use WordPress, making my third attempt to understand Drupal, which is much better under Drupal 7, and was going to go back to WordPress because of the lack of themes available.
Great to see someone building quality themes for Drupal at realistic prices [I am a retired hobbyist]
Happy to buy the theme when finished.
Like you said the concept has endless possibilities and niche uses. I was going to build a directory, but this is so much more visually appealing for a directory concept in a niche.
I would use it for Home builders designs, and monetize with adsense and then sponsored ads. [Not a big niche but would be helpful for builders to become findable.

No doubt the theme is worth more than $59, but $249 is a little steep.
I would suggest getting more people using your themes, and Drupal in particular would be a better strategy in the mid to long term.
Putting a high price on the theme would encourage other developers to jump on the bandwagon and undercut you.
Suggest a $99 price point would be much more palatable, and less attractive for other cloners to compete.
I was waiting for a Wordpress theme to hit, but I would switch to Drupal for this theme. Market share is important to grow your brand and Drupal imo.
Btw, your other themes are beautiful.

Hi Jason, given the nature of a pinterest-like site with photos pinned by users that may not be owned by them, can you tell (if you know) what is the copyright law status regarding the owner of such a site?
If myself for example, run such a site will i break any copyright law by allowing others to pin photos to my site?
I also want to know if a user actually will upload a full sized photo or just a scaled down version?
It may be useful to prepare for us an example of a license agreement in such a way that the user accepts and takes all the responsibility of his actions regarding copyright rights of other's work.
I understand that when a user uploads his own photos gives away his rights to site owner. Is that correct?
Another suggestion is to have a an option for the site administrator to put a hold on a user's pin (unpublish?) until a dispute is cleared.
A special form for someone to fill a dispute will also be useful. (Dispute administration ?)
I also want to know what the hosting requirements will be for a starter site of e.g. 200 users, with 4 boards each user and 10 pins per board.
What is the hard disk storage (and monthly bandwidth) needed for that?

I can't wait to start working!

Nikos

Hi Jason,

I'll buy this script.

How will pinning work exactly? Will users be uploading files themselves, linking to files by URL, or will you actually have something akin to the Pinterest browser plug-in?

I'm also happy to be a beta tester so feel free to send me an email and I'll do an advance purchase in conjunction with a beta.

Looking forward to it.

I think this is a great undertaking. would like to chip in but can't seem to be able to. I would also add some support to use a per user s3 configuration, that could help CDN type of support for images and some videos. premium price is a little steep but would chip in to get the lowered price tag.

-watching this list

Please count us in. We cannot wait to give it a run. We can participate in beta testing if possible.

When is the demo site going to be available to try? Is there a release date for the theme ?

Thanks,

Massoud.

Watching this.!

Has this project died or will it be released?

Will keep tracking the progress - can't wait to see it live!

Hi Jason,

What if we must moderate comments before they get published, will we be able to do so with the Pinterest clone ?

Thanks..

Will it be sold with the source code so that we can maintain/update it in case your company stops improving upon it?

Please notified me when Pinterest clone is ready to buy also your real Estate Module with IDX

Are you releasing by tuesday as previously stated?

Hi Jason,

I will buy this script if you can manage to get it working properly with Drupal.

How to get in touch with you?

Thanks!

If I understand correctly, Pinterest is a social bookmarking website for images and videos.
But what if I want to bookmark certain interesting URL's or files ?

How would that work if I do not want to provide a photo or video, but rather bookmark/share a URL ?

Thanks!

Is it possible that this theme has an Invite option?

Let's say you are in beta and want to test and at the beginning want to have your members to invite people. Is it possible to operate in Invite-only mode and let existing users to invite other friends?

thank you

Thank you, looking forward to it.

Will the boards have sorting options?
User score?

Will Private Messaging be available among users?

Also, how about allowing what Pinterest did -- make money off affiliate links by automatically inserting affiliate links to product sites via Skimlinks?

http://skimlinks.com/

THAT would make this AWESOME.

Hi,

I am using a pinterest clone from another company and I am very disappointed with it. It is unstable, to many bugs, and little support. I will certainly be interested in this one as a replacement.

John

Hi,

Is today the launch date?

Just curious -- do you think there may be a way to connect this Pinterest Clone's user registration/login with Vbulletin or Invision Forums?

In other words, is there a Drupal - Vbulletin/Invision integration that you may be aware of?

Hi,

Is there a new release date on this?

demo is available?

v=can you please lmk when its ready for purchase

Hi,

I am interested in your code. I would likely want to integrated it into an existing Drupal site. Please send me a message about costs and perhaps your help with some custom work.

Thanks, Jerry

Hello Jason,

I am waiting and watching your progress with excite. You said you can build it in these days.
What is the date for release and sell?

Greetings,
I'm ready to pre-pay for the final version ($250?) right now if you are willing to send me whatever latest functional beta version you have at the moment. I just want to get started on it sooner rather than later. I would have paid the $150 contribution fee, but it seems the contributions are closed. Please email me on how we can complete the transaction if you are willing to do so.
Thanks.

Hi, we are very interested in this product. Please keep us updated.

Will the following be available for add-on?
1. Rating system - Users will be able to rate the pins they are sharing
2. Points system - Users will collect points for each action, eg create pins, commenting, like
3. Activity stream

Thanks

just wanted to share this with you. it might help?

Thanks!

Hello Jason,

Where have you been for 7 days. I hope you work hard as always to complete the project and will surprise us before weekend :)
Do you know that Jason, you are the person who I most want to hear a noise from now :)

Take care,
Best Regards.

Looking good.

But major bug: once you open a pin board, you can't get back to the main board without submitting a comment or doing some kind of action.

Also, anyone is allowed to comment without registering.

And I also heard Pinterest allows pinning of Youtube and VImeo videos now.

Just remember us who chiped in at the beginning in order that when you start selling we can have our copy too.
Nikos

But it doesn't make sense to force someone to use a browser back button to get back to the main board.

Just clicking on the main board should allow you do go back to it.

It's a user experience thing.

can I purchase it now.
Id like to play with the beta.

Very, very nice Job. can't wait for my stable copy. :)
The best of innovation. Hat's off

Please notifies me on release, thanks

It's a pretty fundamental navigational aspect of Pinterest that you click on a pin, have it zoom, then click away to zoom other pins.

I think this is a must-have to be honest.

When you click on one of the images labelled:

"Uploaded to Pinboard'
Uploaded Pins

I'm unclear what this means.

Also, it triggers a login page instead of taking me directly to the uploaded pin:

http://test3.themesnap.net/user

It may be important to have a "Report Pin" feature for Copyright DMCA take-down purposes.

Is there are way to pin a forum post or forum thread thread or blog post?

Now that would be truly cool.

Hi Jason,

Thank for the nice work done in Pinboard, It surely worth the wait!

I have registered yesterday morning on the demo Pinboard site but still pending approval after over 36 hours passed now. I would like to start pinning in my boards. How long do you think we need to wait before our registration gets approved ?

All the best,
Massoud AlShareef

it seems that "linking" (adding some URL) within the Comment-section at Pinterest is not allowed. Maybe that is the reason which is fueling the posting of images by users?

However, linking is allowed in the comments-sections of your theme here......

When you click "FOLLOW" without being logged in, it just reloads the page and does nothing.

Shouldn't this prompt login like clicking "REPIN" does when you are not logged in?

This login:http://test3.themesnap.net/user/login-to-rate?destination=

is different than

This login: http://test3.themesnap.net/user

http://test3.themesnap.net/user seems more intuitive as it allows registration or password reset.

Shouldn't both lead to http://test3.themesnap.net/user ?

what is the final price? can we buy it yet?

Hi Jason,

Thank you for such good job.

I will tell about my first impressions to help you as another eye.

1-) Web site looks like just a blog. Will it remain this way? (Recent users, Powered by Drupal etc. on the right)

2-) Adding a pin can not be harder. It is just writşng an article. You should covert it to just Browse -> Description->Choose Board(Create new or choose created before)->Upload

3-) I can pin again and again my own pins. This should be disabled.

4-) Will you add FB and TWT support?

5-) It should look like more pinterest-like (not pinterest copy - If we think; is gmail a copy of hotmail?NO) . Now BETA looks like as an ordinary blog theme (tumblr! wordpress Flipchart theme)

6-) I want to see my avatar, my name somewhere of the site. Only a log out Link makes me feel I am already logged in.

7-) Comment button should open a mini-textbox below the pinned image / Not a new page

8-) Like doesn't work on thumbnail pin, when I click and open an image and click Like finger below, it counts 1 likes, and where is the UNLIKE?

9-) How many comment do you plan to show under an image? Look at the Luxury Yacht Charter named pin and comments below it. If I add 10+ comments it would close all the page.

I hope I and others will help you to see this type of small/big issues.

Take care.

Is there a way to pre pay? Also,as most of your setups are all drupal distributions (modules, + installed content and configuration of modules, views, etc), everything is installed during the install process. Will updates be able to be made as an update or will it require a complete re-install? I ask because while I would like to buy a copy now, I will not want to redo any custom configuration that I do. If prepay and access to beta is possible then wold probably like to test out other feature intergrations in preparation for the production release.

It's seems that you are a newbee in Drupal CMS and not sure you understand most of your own notices clearly.The matter is that we are not focused on exact copy of Pinterest.com portal. Drupal CMS has its own unique tools for web sites development. Our idea is to integrate a part of Pinterest.com functionality with Drupal CMS to get additional tool for web sites building. Drupal CMS provides flexible and enough easy tools for customization of web sites based on Drupal CMS for many people. We are not focused on delivering our Drupal theme profile installation as complete solution (all in one) because we have to provide our customers the ability to apply their custom solution on their web site projects. We provide basic functionality in Drupal theme profile installation which is a feature of this installation among others.
However thanks for your interest in our project and your posts on the forum.

"Pin it" button won't drag to the
bookmark tool bar of Chrome the 2nd time
after the button was dragged once then
deleted, and it gives a bad script
error msg after dragged onto Opera thumbnail
bar.

Would http://drupal.org/project/orchid work with this project?

I would want to add a link to a Vanilla forum which appears next to the main nav like this:

CATEGORIES BLOG POPULAR FORUM

And then have the forum display with the Drupal Pinterest Clone heading and embedded within the body content area.

While the zooming (CNTL + "+" and "-") feature and dragging the "Pin it" button to bookmarks bar work just fine with Pinboard on IE, Opera, and FF browsers, I seem to face problems with Google Chrome (my favorite). Number of pins displayed on a raw across the screen horizontally does not change with Zooming in/out and "Pin it" button won't response to the mouse movement while trying to drag it to the bookmarks bar on Chrome (I am using Chrome ver. 18.0.1025.152 m).

Hi,

Nice project. Ready to buy it when it is ready. You release the beta on Monday?

Hi.
1) I like the board system in Pinterest, so anyone can create a thematic board that makes things better.
Here i cannot see it implemented visually. Instead we must remember the name of our board and as we type we see board names that do not belong to us.
I think that a user when it pins something must choose only from his own boards.
So, i like to see for a user's account separate "boards" and "pins" menu items.
2) Below a pin i think we must have a description like this "[user name] onto [board name]", where [board name] must be clickable and lead to this board's pins. When this pin is a repin we must have a description like this "[user name1] via [user name2] onto [board name]"
3) I agree with a comment above that pining must be simpler. I prefer instead of going to create something like a content node as it is now, to have a pop up window in client's browser (javascript) where he enters basic information and just press "pin it". I know you can do it because you already developed a pinit bookmarklet (which by the way is working very good and fast in all the browser i tried: Opera, Firefox, Chrome).
4) I understand that many people that will buy this theme are going to make customizations. I propose you to encourage all these people to share their findings, and you must create a very special forum page only for pinboard users to exchange ideas and ask for help between them.
5) How can get i copy when it's ready? I was the first contributor!

Good job so far, but it needs more little things that will make it better

Hi all,

I am closing the comments section on this blog post since we do not need to post bug reports in this thread. If we are going to track this theme's progress more effectively, we must do so in the forums. Please use these URLs below for tracking PinBoard:
