Okay, so, a lot of girls like to put up magazine pages on their walls that have like cute clothes and stuff like that and I wanted to do that but I'm not sure what to put them up with. I tried those little tacks that have the big circle top but it looks really tacky (lol pun), and so do thumbtacks. I can't do glue or tape or sticky tack because my wall has those little bumpy things on it. So I was wondering if anyone could tell me how I can get these magazine pages on my wall so that it looks good and everything.
You could paint your wall and stick the pages on while the paint is wet. Or get clear tacks. Or glue or tape the pages to a posterboard and hang it on your wall. Or use a corkboard. Whatevv. [ pockets's advice column | Ask pockets A Question ]

I know you said you can't glue or tape things but have you tried using adhesive things on it? At craft shops they sell strips of velcro. You just peel off the backing and stick it onto things. Your pictures will be attached to your wall with velcro which of course is temporary. That way you can reaarrange the pictures as much as you'd like.
Another idea. At the Container Store, they sell these magnetic metal strips. They come in all sorts of really cute colors (i have them in lime green). They come with a set of magnets. You can buy a couple of them and line them up around your wall (you need to nail them in, but its really easily done) and put all your pictures on them. I have them as I said and love them.
Why don't you buy a bulletin board? They don't have to be all ugly! You can even make one yourself. Just buy a square of corkboard and paint it whatever color you want. I know its kind of similar to the approach you started with though, but this way it won't look like you just stuck a tack in the wall.
