No idea how to do them quickly. I made a board on pinterest that is for 2Peas Bookmarks and I pinned my bookmarked LOs there. The images should still be there when 2Peas shuts down but the links won't work anymore.

I have a scrapbook layout inspiration board anyway, but I had wondered what would happen to all the layouts that were linked on there from 2peas. Good to know they should still be visible at least. I can't believe all that content is just going to disappear! Makes my brain boggle a little bit, that so much that's been there for so long will just go *poof* and vanish.

Me either - I have several threads bookmarked too and will be so sad to seem them go but I just don't have time to copy and paste all of them into word and don't really know a better way to save them

If it's a multi page thread you'll have to do each page separately but it will save it as you see now.
I pinned the bookmarks I still wanted to keep to Pinterest but it did take a few hours to go through everything and decide what I wanted to move over. It was definitely a walk down memory lane!

I didn't get any of my bookmarks saved, when is the deadline again?
I could say I didn't have time, but really who am I kidding? I had time to rack up 163 posts in 10 days!
I'm just going to let them all go and start fresh. There is always lots of inspiration out there.

It makes me sad though because I habe over 500 projects bookmarked and some was it is amazing work! So many talented Peas!

Hi. I was saving my bookmarks to Pinterest, but when I went to my "unfiled" ones (the l/o's), they were gone and an error message came up. The stuff I had in folders was still there, but I guess the unfiled got deleted somehow. I did send 2Peas an e-mail, but since they're closing out, I doubt if they have time to fool with any of that. Maybe you guys have the right idea and a fresh start will be best. Maria

I have a big board called "So Crafty" on Pinterest and I figure I can grab all the inspiration I want from there. It's the cream of the crop of inspiration that I've found online for the last few years. I'm very glad I can still follow most of my favorite crafters on their blogs.

pdfcrowd.com and you can do 30 pages at web2pdfconvert.com before it shuts down for the month or you pay for it. I used up my quota on TWO large threads! Bad thing is, I didn't know I had a quota.

For years, before going on an annual retreat I would copy and paste my bookmarks into Word and print them in color, trim down and store them in my idea book (a sarabinder... how old am I?). I am a bit behind, as the last couple of years I've just been looking at my bookmarks on my phone during the retreat... I'll have to see if it's worth trying to get caught up like that.
I hadn't thought of pinning the bookmarks, I didn't realize the images would stay! That may be a game-changer! Thank you so much for the advice!

When I posted about it and sent a note to "the Powers that Be" I was ignored. But when I posted on the board that people better check out their bookmarks because mine were missing............WOW, did I ever hear from the PTB! Not nice. It was decided it was a mistake and it was fixed and TPTB apologized, but they are missing again!! I half think it was on purpose, but hate to really think that. I did go thru and file many, many, many pages of them, so they are saved in my files. I'm so sorry you are in the same boat.

I copied all of my bookmarked images onto my computer. I had 200+. It didn't take long, maybe 30 minutes. I didn't really bookmark too many threads so I'm just going to let those go. I agree, I now have so many awesome blogs to follow that the inspiration won't be lacking! I will miss the forums and the free videos so much, but all good things come to an end I guess.

I didn't realize I could save my bookmarked - off to take care of that! I did move all of my gallery to Scrapbook.com - that went really smooth!

There is a faster way to save them. It is not the best, but in a pinch it is better than nothing.
When you go to any page in your bookmarks, there is a little printer icon next to the page numbers. Click on that an you will get another page. You can then right-click on that page and SAVE AS to your computer. You will not have acess to multiple page bookmarks as in the case of a mini book or something, but if you are looking to save at least the first photo of each bookmark, you can do it that way.
When you open your save page, you can use your control button and the mouse scrolly to make the images bigger for viewing.
hope that helps someone.

So, I just Pinned a thousand items from my 2peas bookmarks. Okay, it was 136. But it was really easy, and I'm grateful that it automatically saves with the Pea's name and that it came from 2peas. I wouldn't want to be all thefty like that. I feel much better now, knowing that so much of the inspiration I had at my finger tips won't just disappear!!! Thanks so much for the suggestion!

I think pinterest has been bombarded with two peas layouts recently. I know I pinned a bunch.

I pinned a bunch of layouts from my bookmarks, but I don't see the Pea's name attached to any of them. That was one of the things I was kinda bummed about. Where are you seeing the name?

I had only bookmarked layouts, so I simply copied & re-sized them into a Word file. It's not the quickest process, but was worth it for a file of inspiration!
The day after the announcement I had the same experience when I logged in. After copying & re-sizing pages of bookmarked layouts saved in defined folders, I clicked the Unfiled folder & the images, not an error, loaded. I suggest refreshing the page often, & hope the layouts you saved will also appear!

Nylene and PaperAngel, thanks for the suggestions on trying to retrieve my unfiled bookmarks. I've checked back several times and they still haven't magically reappeared. I tried sending 2Peas an e-mail and I thought it had gone thru, but the next day it was ret'd as undeliverable. I've been going thru the gallery a little at a time and pinning a few l/o's here & there, so much talent in the gallery! I did get my pdf's from Glittler Girls's classes downloaded to my computer. I'm so amazed and grateful that there were so many creative folks over there who shared their work. I appreciated all of it. And thanks for setting up this board to give us a place to reconnect and ask questions. Scrapbookers are the nicest! Maria '

I transferred my own gallery to scrapbook.com and have pinned layouts I liked by other peas to Pinterest.

I have been pinning my bookmarks, as well as going through the gallery and pinning new ones. I pinned everything to my scrapbook board instead of creating a new one, but it all says it came from twopeas, and I made sure I put the username on everything (I just copied & pasted it into the description because it doesn't automatically insert that info for me)

You have to use the 2Peas Pinterest icon just to the right of the project pic. If you use your own icon pin, that you pin everything else with, you will not automatically get the project and pea info.

Thanks, FurryP. Wish I'd have done it that way! I may have to go back & add the info since we have more time now.

I had a tab with my own pinterest boards open, and then was pinning from another tab on 2peas. I have no idea if it's necessary to do that but I could see the project name, pea name, and @twopeasinabucket autofill in each description box whenever I clicked Pin. (Truth comes out now, that I don't pin much-and the large majority are just re-pins!)
