Pickture is a new social shopping community that was launched in November 2013. Pickture revolutionizes online shopping uniting all of the best aspects of online retailing - value for money, convenience, selection and peer recommendations.
You bookmark the things you find online, organize them into lists and then share your finds with friends and other users of Pickture. Our web extension shows you the best prices on your bookmarked products with direct links to the retailer’s website while you browse.
So pick the things you love, create your wish lists and inspire others!
Once installed, a Button is added to your browser’s toolbar which allows you to add your favourite products to your Pickture profile. While you browse, the extension also shows all on-going promotions and discount codes for the products that interest you.

A lookbook is a sort of catalogue, gathering different products linked together by a main visual. It can be for example, the outfit of your favourite star, or the future interior of your living room. A lookbook allows introducing several products together, no matter what their category or the situation is.
To create your first lookbook, you have to go to your profile and click on “Create a pick, a lookbook, a list”, which is located in the upper left-hand corner of your pick wall and then “Create a Lookbook”.
1- Upload a cover picture for your lookbook.

Congrats, you just have created your first Lookbook!
To modify your lookbook, you just have to go to your profile and click on “Edit” located on the upper right-hand. Then, you could modify the picks or the Lookbook’s information.
A lookbook is automatically set to private within the list it belongs to. If you want to change it, you have to move the lookbook to another list or change the privacy of the list in question.
With the Pickture Button you can pick any product available to purchase online with a picture and a price.
As you browse the web, if you click on the Pickture Button in your browser’s toolbar a window appears that displays the details of the pick that will be added to your profile. You must select a list to which the pick will be added. Don’t forget to check the status of your profile and the list (public or private). Once you’ve picked the product a link in the window will take you directly to the newly created on our site.
Before clicking on Pick to add the product to one of your lists, take a moment to verify the accuracy of the auto-completed details. We try our best to ensure that each pick is as accurate as possible, but from time to time we might need your help. To correct any fields simply select the text and replace with the correct details (e.g. title or price). Once you’ve made the required changes just click Pick.
If the image chosen by the Button is not the one you’d like to add to your profile it is possible to scroll through alternative options by clicking on one of the arrows next to the image. If no other options are available please refresh your page, click on the image that you’d like to select on the merchant website and then retry the Button. Your chosen image should now appear. If no images appear please try another website. Don’t hesitate to give us feedback on the Button. We’d love to hear from you.
