Update Your Pinterest Profile

Pinterest personal profiles have been redesigned and now sport a more streamlined look, reminiscent of Facebook Timeline. Broken into section tabs (Boards, Pins, Likes, Activity, Followers and Following), users can quickly access desired information. In addition, a number of Web browser extensions have been created to speed up the pinning process.

• Mouse over the small box next to the Edit Profile box beneath your profile picture to cue a Rearrange Boards message.
• Click on the box to begin rearranging boards (the box will turn red with a white check mark).
• Left-click the board you wish to reposition and drag the board into its new location. 
• Click the red box with the white check mark to save your changes.
