@Flossbolna I'll try again when DH comes home, he's more of a computer expert than I am. I mean seriously I've been a member for a while and I still don't have an avatar
I feel old!

Took me ages to find out how to do a avatar. In fact it has been so long, I don't think I could do it again.

Someone did post a step by step so I just copied it and put it in Word and have yet to do it. I do not have nerves of steel!

Ha! I got a new smart phone and my DS knew more about it than I did and he didn't even own a phone at the time!

 

[FoxC63]

Oh no!!! Did not want to get you into a mood to destroy your computer!!!!!!! Hope it all turns out well.

Buddy, I PM you too!

I read the first 20+ pages days ago so I can't remember if this was addressed. I called today and made my daughter's reservation for BBB at 5 on a day I'm pretty sure there is a party. The CM said they don't often let people in until 5 but I was pretty sure I read numerous times that's it's 4pm. If we get a room discount we will likely just add a park day and try to go earlier but I just wanted some input about getting in before 7.

We were able to enter at 4 this past September with our party tickets.

Yes, Post 1.

What time does MNSSHP start? What time can I enter the park?
MNSSHP officially starts at 7pm. Guests may enter Magic Kingdom using their party tickets starting at 4pm. This practice is not officially advertised by Disney, but it has been exercised for many years and Cast Members will readily confirm this information. None of the party-specific M&Gs or trick-or-treating will begin until 7pm, with a few M&G exceptions.

Since 180 days out from 10/1 is 4/1 - did they have any projection of a Halloween party dates release? I wonder how many will book this without knowing party dates.

You just have to use the projected party dates and historical data as your guide. I booked my ADRs last week, assuming the party during my stay will be on Friday and Sunday. Sunday doesn't affect my plans, but we plan to go on Friday, with an MK day on Thursday. I just made duplicate ADRs for Thursday and Friday, and will eliminate the ones I won't need once the dates are official. I need a breakfast and dinner ADR for my MK day, and a late breakfast on my MNSSHP day; I booked all three for Thursday and Friday.

Is today the day, guys?

 

[Lyandra]

We will be there from Sept 25 to October 1st, and I really hope they have a party on the 26th. Need to start doing my ADR tomorrow... What throws me off is that on September 28th, MK closes at 6pm. Any reasons why that would happen?

No, tomorrow.

This is the same party date I need. Also making ADRS tomorrow and pretty nervous about it.

I'm in a similar boat - we will be there the 24th - 30th, so ADR day was today. We booked with the expectation that the party will be on Tuesday the 26th. I have no idea why MK closes at 6 on Thursday. Very strange!

We are traveling 18 month old twins, so we planned for breakfast at 'Ohana on the 26th. We figure that we'll take it easy, maybe go to a park after breakfast, nap in the afternoon, and head to MK for the party around 3:00 (we have a park hopper, so the ticket isn't an issue).

Actually, 4/4 is 180 days out from 10/1. (180 days doesn't equal exactly 6 months to the date since some months have 31 days.)

I am trying for this date for the party as well, my arrival day. The 6pm closing on the Thursday is for some Cast Member event so the party will not be available. I hope this helps!

Another day with no news!

OK, here's a very simple way to do an avatar

At the top right side of this page, you will see your screen name - click on it. Then you will see the word Avatar in the list. Click on it. In the Avatar Editor that comes up, you will see "Upload new custom avatar:" with a blank space under it. Click on the word "browse", and search your computer for a photo or graphic you would like to use. Once you click on that, you will come back to the Avatar Editor and see the address of that image. Click "Okay", and follow any further directions on the screen.
