I just saw a mouseplanet tweet about a new "Mydisneyphotopass.com" which is only open to resort guests starting today, so I can't even see if they've fixed some of the prior problems. More likely is that they added a flashy new interface that will perform even worse than the current photopass website.
I just received my photo pass+ package in the mail yesterday. I hear of a new website today that needs new login info. After all the posts I've read today I'm getting worried. If I have to set up a new profile, how do I get my prepaid PP+ CD after my trip. Arriving in 9 days! Excited and now nervous.
If the new site is attached to your Disney login, that's going to kill shares, isn't it?
This is a timely thread for me as I am just now going through my photos from last week. Some are amazing, and some are only okay. I am super disappointed in one though. We posed outside of DHS with the Monsters University scene with Sully and Mike W. made of plants. The photographer took only one picture and it doesn't have any of the background t all. It is a close-up of our family and neither kid is looking at the camera. I can't believe the photographer only took one picture. There was not much of a line or anything.
I will still do PP+ though next year because I love getting lots of pictures of the whole family.

On the old site, you still had to associate the cards with one person's account. And then that person was responsible for distributing, right? That's how I've done family shares.
So in the short term, that shouldn't change. Now, if the generic PP card becomes obsolete and PP is tied to your Magic Band or RFID card, then it might get trickier. I assume I can still consolidate photos from all of the people listed in MDE as my "family". But at the very least, there's likely to be an extra level of complication there.

My thinking was that no one is going to give their MDE login info to others to do edits.
I have to comment that I would be HIGHLY surprised that if, all of a sudden, the PP quality totally went downhill. Our photos the last three years have been great.
1) You can, and should, talk with the PP photographer. Let them know what you're looking for in the photo.
2) Don't be afraid to come up with your own ideas for poses or other candid shots. We've done this a lot the last couple of years. The PP photographers are more than happy to accommodate. I think it breaks up the monotony for them.
3) If you weren't ready for a shot, and didn't think you got a good photo, say so! Ask them to please take a couple more.
4) Have fun!
<--- BTW, my avatar is a PP photo. (it's been cropped for my avatar of course) It's one of my all time favorites of my family.
