We are interested in joining the fun! I just ordered Fish extenders!

WELCOME! Glad you could join us, we look forward to having you here!

When you say you ordered Fish Extenders, did you mean that you signed up with Ashlotte or Pink Elephants to let them know that you are participating in the Fish Extenders? Because you don't have 10 posts yet you will not be able to pm either of them, so if you want to participate, just post here and they will contact you.

Welcome Aboard!

I am so excited! DCL cruise #2! Finally taking the two little ones! Child #4 is potty trained!! Cannot wait to see everyone! Need some help getting into the swing of things.
*
Also, is there anyone who is graphic design guru who can help me with magnets for my door???

I am not a "guru" by any means, but I do have fun with the graphics and would be happy to help you with door magnets. Besides, you're from Ohio, I grew up in Ohio (Cincinnati)and that makes us almost related!! I have many of the same graphics you'll see on the other magnet and design threads and I have a pretty good graphics design program. Things will be slowing down a bit at work over the next couple of weeks and it really doesn't take all that long to pull some stuff together. Let me know what kind of things you'd like.

Zerog, please make a note next to our reservation that I will be celebrating my birthday (4/29) on this cruise. Thanks.

I am not a "guru" by any means, but I do have fun with the graphics and would be happy to help you with door magnets. I have many of the same graphics you'll see on the other magnet and design threads and I have a pretty good graphics design program. Things will be slowing down a bit at work over the next couple of weeks and it really doesn't take all that long to pull some stuff together. Let me know what kind of things you'd like.

Hi Beth
For our last cruise, Kristine made me (and 500 others) graphics to print out as door magnets. The kids loved them. Here is the link to her thread:

• http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1779688

I wasn't going to ask her again as I think she got inundated with requests.

However, if you have the time we would love if you could make us a couple of graphics. If not, that is okay. I'm afraid if you do it for me, others will rightfully ask as well and I wouldn't want this to become a burden.

If you do agree to do this, let me know and I will send you specifics. Also, please post a few sample templates to give us some options to choose. Thank you.

Here are the door magnet graphics that Kristine designed for me:

 

[AKcruiser]

Hi Everyone,

I am glad to know that I am not the only last minute planner for a Disney cruise!!

The magnets by Kristen are so cool!!! I am hoping my DH will help me figure out how to do the magnets.

Are there some guidelines on the gifts for the FEs? Do we do a gift for each person in the party? I want to get started on my gifts that I am making.

Thanks.

Brenda

No problem. There is time to catch up. If we can't answer your question here, you will get a ton of answers from the main board.

Ok, I googled it on disboards(about FREAKED when I couldn't find the search on here...lol...hope they fix that soon!) and found out what it was. Pretty neato!

 

[AdventureLover67]

kimberlyp02-
Thanks to the "old timer" Magical Mayniacs, I can actually tell you about the Fish Extenders (FE)!
First of all, if you decide to participate, notify either Ashlotte or PinkElephants right away.
The Fish Extender is kind of like a mail box you can either make or order from e-bay (yep, just type in "Fish Extender" and you'll be able to see one!), and you hang it from your cabin door and it's filled with goodies from the other people are participating in the program. From what I understand, you can put anything you'd like in it, i.e., something special from your hometown, pens, candies, magnets, whatever you'd like! If you look at the very beginning of this thread, Laura explains about it, and somewhere else in the thread there are some directions on making one.
Hope this helps!!

The Fish Extenders are for each person in the party. There should be another updated list coming out soon I would think.

 

[laura001]

Woohoo!!!! I have hit the 30 day mark!!!

 

[Ashlotte]

Hi everyone! Sorry about the fish extender list delay. Life is a little wacky for us right now, which has, unfortunately, shifted my focus away from vacation planning. Anyway, here is the updated list for those participating in the fish extender exchange.
If you do not see your name on here and you want to participate, please let me or PinkElephants know right away, so people can make sure to buy/make things for you. If you are on the fence about it, don't be scared! It will be a lot of fun. You can look athe the first page of our cruise meet thread to get links to learn more about it.
If you see anything that needs editing (names, ages, etc.), don't be shy in letting me know. I am a typo queen!
