i'm sorry if this is a repeat ?, but does anyone have any experience with this? was it worth it? how did it work? How much do individual pix cost?

TIA

The trick is to have a lot of pics taken...I think the CD can hold like 1000 pics or something like that. We used the service in May and I love most of them...of course there were a few that were less than flattering I ended up using a discount code (watch your email for some great deals) and got my CD for $62.50 and my Photo Album for $35.00! The Photo Album is BEAUTIFUL and I could use photos that we took on our own camera in it too! Go to disneyphotopass . com (no spaces in address) and you can see the products offered and their prices...I think you have to register, but at least you will have it done ahead of time. Make sure that you order before your expiration date...they sometimes leave the pics up longer, but not always. Have fun!!

where did you get the discount code from? I really must find this

how many photos did you end up with? I would love to see some examples of what they took.

We do it everytime and the pictures come out amazing. There is no obligation to buy so no risk.

Will the cast members still use your camera as well? We were there in 2002 and everytime we had a picture taken we asked if they would take one with our camera as well. They always said yes.

They will sometimes mail you a discount code...I guess it is just the luck of the draw....Mine is expired or I would give it to you. We ended up with 120 pics...here are a few....

The Next couple include my daughter's best friend that moved to Vero Beach...

There really is magic in the Magic Kingdom...

Girls morning out...

There are several places that use the magic effects such as the Tink...We just did not know about them until we returned...I suggest asking the photopass people. I think there is a baby simba at AK and Stitch at MGM and I think maybe captain hook somewhere too. I would just take advantage and have as many pics taken as possible...we should have had more.

Yes...sometimes if they see that you have a camera, they will even ask you if you would like them to take one without your having to ask.

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is just like when they used to take your picture and give you the ticket to come back later and check the photo. NOW, you can check your pictures when you get home and order them. I really enjoy this feature.

Is it possible to buy & download individual photos from the website if you don't want the whole CD?

I know that you can buy individual pictures from the website...however, I Think that they print them and send them to you...however, I could be wrong....I was lucky enough to get a 50% off code a couple of months ago and therefore ordered the whole CD. Anyone else know for sure???

Here's the deal:

You can order the cd BEFORE you go and pay a discount 99.95 I believe it is but then you are commited so if the pics don't come out I guess you are out of luck? I don't know for sure what you would do if you didn't get enough pics or weren't happy with them. Otherwise you can wait until you get back and order for standard fee of 124.95 this is for the CD and the copyrights to all of the pictures which you can then take to wal mart or target wherever and print as many as you want. On the cd will be all the photopass pictures that they take as well as any that you add little borders/icons or autographs to.

they also have the digital albums that you can buy. These have a varying price range, but you can use photopass photos OR your own that you upload to the site. I have heard that they are really great.

If you don't order the CD your pics are online for 30 days. you can share them via email but not one at a time, it is all of them and the people that you send them to get to go through all of them ( the good the bad and the ugly hahahahaha) if you want to purchase indv. photos they are 5x7 that is the smallest and they are 12.95 each unless you get a discount code.

Good luck with whatever you decide and don't forget about the tink pic in the mk, stitch in mgm and simba in AK I believe I have heard others say that there are more? Maybe a captain hook one or something? I can't remember exactly but just ask I am sure that they can tell you.

You can pre order the photopass and get the $99.00 price. It also says if you are not satisfied, you can get a full refund. So you are at no risk.
