Does Anyone Else Here "promote" On Polyvore?

I've been on there for a few months but I've just decided to have a clean sweep and start again. Still trying to decide what I can and can't do.
Anyway if anybody wants to "follow" me I'm here http://ipgphotography.polyvore.com/ - I'll follow back - but I'm not sure what good that does :)

Can you explain a bit about the site? I am not really familiar with it, and it does not want to run well on my phone.

It's a bit like Houzz, you just add various items, make collections or sets. It's generally used by home designers
To quote from their site:

"Personalized Shopping

Polyvore simplifies online shopping by bringing together all the stores in one convenient place. Then we curate it all into a personalized boutique just for you, making it even easier to discover and shop for looks you love.

Social Commerce

We’re a social site that drives sales to retailers. Our average basket size across retail partners is over $383, which is higher than other leading social networks combined."

Not sure how well it works for individuals but there are some well known companies that promote their good on there

I'm trying to figure it out now. Looks very interesting. Can't seem to import my images from FAA. Not sure why. All the discussions on Polyvore seem very short. Is there some issue I'm unaware of with Polyvore? Are there other similar sites for promoting our work?

No, Unlike other POD sites you can't clip directly from the FAA, I questioned this some time ago and somebody said they would look into it - that's as far as it got.
I get around this by posting the pictures on my blog and then clip those images to Polyvore ( http://ipgphotography.uk/Blog/?p=38 ) It doesn't take long once you get the hang of it. This actually has the advantage of allowing customers to choose which of my POD sites to buy from taking into account shipping charges.
