Photopass question

[donna1127]

We'll be visiting WDW on Jan 11-17 (71 days!!!), and I have a quick question about photopass. There are 6 of us, and most likely we'll be splitting up during the day, going to different parks, etc. Is it possible to get everyone's picture on one CD? And how would I go about getting 3 photocards with the same photopass ID?

Thanks in advance!

You just ask for a new card and then when you get back you add them all on using the number printed on them.
In fact, what we did was get a new photopass card every day - in case we lost a card we still had the previous day's pictures.

And you can do that online? Add all the numbers to one account? Or does it have to be done before you leave for home?

Yep
When you go to the parks all the photopass photographers have cards (like credit card sized) and they scan the card and take your picture.
Then you keep the card. The next photographer you give him your card or you can ask for a new one.
When you get home you just punch in the number on the card. It's really straightforward to do it.
I'm not honestly sure if there is a limit to the number of cards. But, we went with my sister and parents. We were in WDW for 6 days - and I think we had at least 12 cards between us.
You know, I was thinking, when we go back, whenever I get a card I'm writing my name and cell number on the back with a Sharpie - just in case I lose a card. I wish I'd thought of it at the time.

Photo pass cards are linkable. When you log into the site, you can put in as many cards as you have. Like a pp said, I don't know if there's a limit. We have done photopass share here with other dissers and there have been quite a few people involved so I doubt you will have a problem.

One tip though - if you also have a digital camera, take pictures of the photopass card numbers, or write the numbers down somewhere; so that if one is lost, you still have the number saved and can retrieve the photos linked to it. I was so glad I snapped a picture of our first photopass card on our last trip because we did end up misplacing it. We were still able to get the photos linked to that card.

I actually read in the Budget Boards that there is not a limit on cards that you can put into one account. Ppl are also setting up photopass shares with each other to help save on the cost. If you order early you can also save money. Not sure of all the details so I would double check in the Budget Board area. Good luck!!!
