Uploading:
Everyone is assigned two days for the upload. During those two days ONLY you will enter your codes from the photopass cards you receive. Having specific days for each family to upload ensures everyone's pics stay together and can be separated easily when it comes time to burn your personal copy of the photopass CD. You will have until 11/5 (Wed) to edit your pictures (crop, add borders, etc). The final edit date was pushed back a few days to accommodate our new members.

How Photopass Share works: (I stole this from the September group, thank you!)
1. Money: Please send $15 to me by 10/10. I will determine individual costs for CDs, shipping, etc. If there is overage, I will send money back with the CD. This amount covers us in case anyone drops out. I have sent everyone a PM with my address, cell phone number, and personal email.
2. Go on your trip and take LOTS of pictures! There is NO limit to the amount of pictures you can take! When you start your trip you will get a photopass card from any photopass photographer in the parks. Your photographer will then scan your card. Take as many pictures as you want !! Stop every photopass photographer you see. They are great opportunities to get the entire family in those pictures ! You can use multiple cards but it is easiest for you to try and use the same card as much as possible.
3. When you return home DO NOT create your own photopass account to view your photos If you create your own account with your pictures you will no longer be eligible for this Photopass share. On your assigned days, please enter your photopass codes into the SHARED account. (I will send you the account number and password the night before your scheduled upload) If you do enter your information into another account there will be no way for us to change this and you will then need to order your own photo cd.
4. Editing Info - Everyone has been assigned "upload days". That way, your pictures are kept together when they are entered into the system and your pics don't get mixed up with other family's photos. After you upload your pics on your assigned days, you are free to edit your pics up until the end of the share. All your edits will stay grouped with their original. As more people are editing, the website can get very slow, so please keep that in mind. A good tip I've heard is that once you find your pictures, click on one photo, then click next instead of going back to all of the photos. That should make things move a little faster. All editing must be done by midnight (PST) on Wednesday, 11/5.
5. After everyone has entered/ edited their pictures, I will order our CDs from Disney. This will take about 2 weeks to arrive sometimes a little quicker. I will let everyone know as soon as I receive the CDs from Disney.
6. Once I get the CD from Disney, I will burn each family a CD of just THEIR vacation photos. This will be easy to do if we have all entered our photopass cards on different days. I will mail out everyone's CDs in a CD "sleeve" in a padded mailer. If there is money remaining in the group balance after all costs, I will send it with your CD.
Feel free to post any other questions you might have. I will try to login regularly and stay in contact with everyone throughout the share.
