Six copies of every picture
Pinterest is a wall of images at different sizes, so it stores every pin several times over: a tiny square for suggestions, a 236-pixel column for boards, a 474 and a 564 for wider layouts — and one unresized copy that nothing on the site ever shows you at full size.
They are near-identical to a machine, which is why a downloader that hands you whatever the page displayed hands you a thumbnail. The one you actually want is the copy Pinterest never puts on screen, and that is the one that arrives here.
Frequently asked questions
What size image do I actually get?
The original, as the pinner uploaded it. Pinterest keeps every image at several widths — 60, 136, 236, 474, 564 pixels for the various board layouts — and one unresized copy underneath. It is that last one you get, which is often several times the resolution of anything visible on the site.
Do video pins work?
Yes, at every resolution the pin was encoded at, each as a single MP4 with the sound already inside. Most sites in this category cannot manage video pins at all, or hand you a stream that will not open outside a browser.
Does it work on pinterest.it, pinterest.co.uk and the rest?
Yes. Pinterest runs a domain per country and a subdomain per language — it.pinterest.com and pinterest.it both reach the same pin — and any of them can be pasted. Only the numeric pin id matters.
Do pin.it short links work?
They are followed to the pin they point at. If a short link has expired it lands on the Pinterest home page rather than a pin, and you are told to open the pin and copy its full address.
Can I download a whole board?
No. This takes one pin at a time by design — pulling an entire board in a single action is a different thing, with different consequences for the people whose work fills it.
Why is the file named after the pinner?
Because a folder of files called 7934c7af215e8af4.jpg helps nobody. Names come out readable, which is the reason bytes pass through this server rather than you being redirected to the storage URL.
