Photopass+, yay or nay?

[waltsgirl4ever]

I've been looking into PP+. When we go we will be dining at 1900 Park Fare (for breakfast and dinner) O'hana for breakfast, Chef Mickey's and CRT. But we don't really go on many thrill rides. Only ride with ride pictures would be Buzz, and possibly Splash and TT this time. Do you think getting PP+ would be worth it just for that?

When uploading all the pictures online, can you add pictures you have taken to and get them on a cd?

Also, when you order the cd, can you add pictures with borders and then add the same one again but without borders or anything?

Thanks

Well, just getting the photo package at one of your dining places that offers it (other than CRT where it's included in the price of your meal) would make up the difference between the regular PhotoPass CD and the PhotoPass +, and you're doing four.

You can upload your own pictures, but they won't appear on your CD.

You can definitely have multiple versions of the same picture - without border, with multiple borders, cropped, etc.

Previously, we bought Photopass with the CD (in 2011) and since we got the CD we were able to put on our own photos (and use the fancy borders if we wanted to edit them). Can you not do that with the regular Photopass CD now? Granted, we'll plan on getting PhotoPass + because of the character meals and ride photos (can't justify spending $10 on each ride photo and we're BIG photo memory people lol).

I cringed a little at the cost but the bottom line is that I LOVE having access to all our pictures. And in our upcoming trip we're going to two character meals, and I'm taking teens who will want every ride picture available. That alone is worth the cost of Photo Pass +.

According to http://www.disneyphotopass.com/skins/100147/help/ProductHelp_CD.htm, the PhotoCD will not include any of your personal uploaded photos. However, they do have a product called Disney's Personal Photo Archive CD ($19.95) that you can have your personal pictures on and put borders on.

I don't understand what you're asking. Are you asking if you can buy a digital download instead of a hard copy? If you just want to get a few pictures, you can definitely buy either a download or a hard copy. If you want to get a lot of pictures, it's a better deal to pre-order the CD and then you get a release that allows you to print the pictures yourself.

My DS is not a huge ride fan..but the photopass+ was still worth it because of all the character meals we do. It's a given for me!!!

Thanks for the info! I have been considering purchasing the PhotoPass+, but wasn't sure if it would be worth it or not.
