Pinning text
Short answer – not really
Alternatives are:
Snapito – a service that allows you to pin a screenshot of a website (snapito.com)
Pin A Quote – grab text from off a website and Pin A Quote will transform it into an attractive graphic for you to pin. Text should be very short. (pinaquote.com)

CopyrightShort answer – no one should be pinning your images without proper permission
Reality – people will still do it
Pros : most will provide linkback’s to your website or Flickr account (where they obtained the photo) which will drive traffic to you
Cons: there is the possibility someone could repin from a google image search or repin one of you images and delete the link
Proper Pinterest etiquet says to always provide linkbacks and credit your sources
Photographers can monitor whether their images have been "pinned" by adding their domain name to the following address:
http://pinterest.com/source/YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME.COM/.
They can also add the following line of code to their site to prevent people from repinning their images: < meta name="pinterest" content="nopin" />.
Another option – include a watermark on your photos and let people pin them – that way they will always carry your name/brand
