Question for QVC Mods: Copy/Paste & "Pin" Disabled?

[ Edited ]

 

Like many others, I copy/paste Linea clothing & jewelry I've purchased & post them in forum threads or pin them to my Pinterest pages. Oftentimes, that's how I keep track of what I've purchased & it helps me put outfits together.

 

I've noticed recently that both the copy/paste and "pin it" functions seem to be disabled. Can you shed some light on why that's changed?

 

Thanks in advance.

I copied and pasted this morning with a Dell laptop running Windows 7 and Google Chrome and had no issues.

 

I don't know about the Pin it function. I use a Pinterest extension button I added to the top of my Chrome browser.

@GraceCO,  Which browser are you using, and is it the current version?

 

I looked at a couple of items and just below the images I still see the options (I'm using Firefox 42.0 and Chrome 46.0.2490.80):

Also, there's a thread in which one of the moderators explains how to copy and paste item images now that the zoom feature has been changed (start at response 12):

@dooBdoo

 

Thank you for responding! I see I should've started this thread elsewhere, but I knew a couple of my Linea friends were having the same issues.

 

I'm also using Firefox--I'll have to check if it's the current version.

 

I'll check out that thread you suggested--sounds like that will help answer my question. It's that zoom feature that has changed everything!

 

A big thank you again for being so helpful.

Set your Firefox to do automatic updates.

My version which is current is V.42.0

Thanks, @JustJazzmom! Doing that nowSmiley Happy

 

UPDATE: I guess I already had it set to automatic updates, so It's the same version as yours.

 

I don't get why QVC now requires us to jump through hoops to cut & paste a photo. What used to be easy, now requires a workaround.

OK, I'm giving it a try with my Apple MAC.  I had to take a screen shot and select a medum size photo.

 

I just got this Linea Zebra coat today.  I already have the Tobacco/Black, and now I also got the Grey/Black:

Re: Question for QVC Mods: Copy/Paste & "Pin" Disabled?

Well, I suggested that QVC wants us to go to the Lost & Found Department to find our own way of doing this, so you have to jump through hoops, ask, then it does not work or you have to have a certain browser or computer.  No, I was correct in what I said but someone's sweet little sensitivity mood was discombobulated by the truth and had it removed.  Shame, shame.  

 

We never get anything positive done with this terrible Tech Department, Styling personnel or Photographers if we do not stand up and say what it is.  They don't care.  They don't want us to advance or highlight their positive Linea items because that does not fit with their Isaac/Halston agenda.  I like clothing from the Halston line  and I love their representative, Cameron but here is an expose of their lack of evenhandedness with  their reps.  

 

David Dangle is professional.  Joan Rivers made this company a lot of money but it appears that her train left the station when she was put to permanent  sleep and Linea,

 

I suppose they, think David and LDO do not work fit the agenda to lure youth who like the blathering fashion duo or the retro agenda of Halston (who, believe me) is high on my list but I have several lists of reps that I enjoy.

 

 LDO is the best at pairing/ mix/matching/ designing and marketing.  But Cameron is third on that list, led by LDO and David Dangloe, IMHO.  Give LDO and David Dangle the carte blanche and access to nice materials and supply that Isaac or Cameron has and yes, the doors and walls would be knocked off QVC because people would be expanding the credit card limits just to buy more.  C'est la vie.  QVC thinks the noveau riche will follow them if they abandon the oldies but goodies who have make their cash registers clink repeatedly.

@Nonametoday

 

I don't doubt your theory is correct. Many retailers are pointing toward a younger demographic, but it's the baby boomers who have all the discretionary income. And, this baby boomer likes quality, so I'm willing to pay more for better fabrics. I only wish we could see those fabrics in the Linea line.

 

I think Louis Dell Olio is among the all-time great iconic designers and we're lucky to have him at QVC. If only they'd allow more budget to the Linea line, so we could get these classic, gorgeous designs in beautiful fabrics, like they USED to do for Linea. Why the Halston brand is allowed that budget, especially since they are the newbies on the block is beyond me. The fabrics are beautiful, but the fit is not, especially if you're accustomed to the LDO fit. Then, when you consider that Halston, the designer who made that line a major brand passed away in 1990, it's even more baffling.

 

I love the Linea line --there's nothing like it anywhere--and have been wearing LDO designs since his days at Anne Klein. I'm sure QVC recognizes what they have in Louis and I only hope they expand his presence. I'll continue to post & share Linea photos, even if that requires jumping through a few hoops!
