Cruise Magnet graphics and links

Wow! It looks great! Hmmm........ That boat at the top looks unfamiliar, can you post it

Thats the castaway club magnet they give you in your CC gift bag on arrival. I'll try to scan it to see if it comes out ok ... someone may already have this scanned.

Thanks to all of you for all of these great graphics!!! ... Here is what our door looked like.

My sister had some princesses on her door like that and late one night almost every one was taken. The stuff that had an identifing mark on it was left. I believe they were taken by unsupervised kids most likely teens. I will not put out anything without a room number or name on it again. I also think I will make a magnet that states all magnets are marked with an identifing mark. Maybe that will help. It is sad that it has come down to this and the parents are unaware that they kids are taking from others. The princesses that were taken were for my 9 year old nices who had just lost thier father and then their princesses get taken. They were upset and I don't blame them.

Another safety action I was told was to take the magnets in at night and replace them each day. I plan on doing this as well. DCL was concerned and I had to tell them repeatedly that it was not a refection on DCL. I understood that they can not control the action of all the guest.

Hope this info will help others to protect thier Magnets and allow all of us to continue to enjoy all of them. Lois

I guess we got lucky, our stateroom (6560) was right at the stair/elevator lobby ... you could actually see the stateroom door from the stair/elevator lobby. We just left them there on the door the entire week and didn't lose a single one ... that we know of.

You did get Lucky but location had nothing to do with it. My sister was in 2058 and we were in 2060 just a few decks below you. May have to do with the deck however and the cost of the staterooms. Don't know. Glad you didn't lose any. Just be aware on future cruises. Lois

May I borrow Jack please???

Absolutely! Go for it -- that's what he's here for!

Yeouch! Wow - I don't think the poster meant ill at all. I feel the DIS boards sometimes foster a sense of "everybody's doing it" when new people spend time viewing threads in order to do research for their upcoming trip. Reading through this thread is a prime example - it makes it seem that everyone who goes on a Disney cruise creates wonderful magnets and signs to put on their cabin door. Those who've cruised on DCL before know that just isn't true. I believe the poster was just trying to relieve other people's anxiety by saying not to fret if you don't have magnets to put on your door - - - that it's OKAY if you don't have the time, creativity, money, room in your suitcase, etc., etc., etc.

By the way, even the 7/7/07 Mediterranean Cruise (heavily attended by DISers) had very few decorated doors. That was our fifth Disney cruise and the first time I ever put magnets on our door.

Yeah, that could have come out better, and I apologize if I offended there (which is quite likely). Sorry about that.

I wasn't trying to be mean either; I just wouldn't be visiting this thread much myself if I wasn't already interested in making them... but then again, the "everybody's doing it" effect hadn't occurred to me until you mentioned it.

It's definitely okay to not make signs (we only started doing them ourselves the past couple of cruises). But this thread is here as a resource if you do.

That's a great looking door! Thanks for sharing!

I love the door as well - how long did it take you to cut all of the characters out? I don't have the patience to cut half that many out!

I love the minnie ears and bow on the door number. Did you get that here?

Thanks!! It took a VERY LONG time to cut out each one ... but we had a year to do it ... booked onboard last September. I printed the graphics on 4X6 photo paper, then cut each one out (very carefully), then used magnetic tape strips on the back.

Yup, got them from here ... looks like bevtoy reposted them. I think there are few other "hats" you can use with your ears but I don't have a copy of those.

Thank you!! I wished I would have taken another picture, after we finished unpacking we found about 10 more that we forgot to put up, so the door looked even "fuller" than it does in this picture. We gots lots of positive comments throughout the week ... even from our stateroom hostess, Aire ... not her real name, couln't pronounce her real name.

Does anyone have a zip file with a bunch of Disney graphics in it? I'd like to make some magnets but I'm not sure how to use the graphics posted here.
If so- please send me a PM. Thanks

I right clicked on the photo and clicked on save picture as, then I put it in a file folder I have labeled Disney magnet photos in the My Pictures file and then I rint that photo out on magnet paper

Yup, it is pretty much as easy as reigle4 explains above. I printed mine out on 4X6 photo paper and used magnetic tape instead of printing on magnetic paper ... but you basically get the same results.

I was going for smaller graphics of disney characters as compared to large 8.5 X 11 "signs" that most people do, so my technique was a little different than most.
