Mixed info on Photopass - which is true?

[MsLeFever]

I've just about decided to bite the bullet and drop the 100 bucks to buy the photopass CD after our trip (next month!!)

I planned to order the CD from the website because I don't want to spend park time standing in line to buy it there.

BUT my most recent Passporter e-mail had an article that said that the CD could only be purchased at WDW and NOT on-line.

Does anyone know for sure?

thanks so much

Yes, you can buy it when you get home HERE

Awesome! I was pretty sure that you could but was afraid I'd misunderstood!

However, you may want to take your own camera (or even a cheap disposable) and ask the CM to also take a photo of you with your camera along with theirs (minus the special character poses).

This is as a backup because the Photopass system VERY likely could lose your entire account of photos. They did with ours, and even with me sending a photo of myself and my family, for their visual research, all photos were lost and we had nothing from our entire visit.

FYI -- We bought the PhotoPass CD on our last trip in 1/2006. This website states that the CD WILL NOT include signatures and borders. When DH went to buy our CD at EPCOT, the CM there added several signatures and borders, etc to our CD. This was EXTRA pictures, not just edits to our existing pictures. Just a perk to buying the CD on-site, I guess. Also, it would probably depend on the CM who was helping you. If he or she didn't feel like doing that work, I guess that your CD wouldn't include these.

As of May they no longer will do enhancements to the CD photos even if you buy it at WDW.
