Post your favorite Character photo

[Sherry E]

Aww I'm sorry Sherry ! I totally noticed your siggie right after I posted that comment. I totally love it !

I always thought the signatures with photos like yours and Courtney's and some other DIS'ers were pretty festive. It just livens things up a lot. But I was waiting until the DLR trips were out of the way and the tickers were gone and the holiday bouncy things were gone to start jazzing it up! Little did I know that it would take sooooooo long!!

TIME FOR A NEW COMPUTER, I'D SAY! And when I finally get one, I may even get some Adobe programs for graphic design, etc. I had a rough time getting comfortable with InDesign when I had to work in it before (I know you love InDesign), but I do enjoy tinkering with pictures and editing them in different ways, so it would be fun to have a program like that PhotoShop that facilitates that!!

Photo manipulation software is so fun! When and if you do get some software, let me know ! I have a lot of fun with photoshop and lightroom. I might be able to give you some pointers

Thanks! I will take you up on that! If and when I get that software (which will depend on when I get a new computer and all the accessories to go along with it), I am sure I will need all the help I can get, and sometimes the manulas and tutorials can be too confusing and give too much info up front when you don't need it all right away! So I would rather ask a regular person who uses that kind of software (and excels at it!) for the basics and important tips before I get myself confused by a manual!! I figure if I could get comfortable enough to work in the basics of InDesign, which I did, Photoshop can't be that much more difficult - there are tons of people using it that I know of, so it can't be too perplexing!!

I LOVE Stitch in the Tigger costume! That is beyond adorable. I am sure he would look cute in all kinds of character outfits - Pooh, Mickey, a Dalmatian or two... There are endless possibilities. I don't blame the characters for trying to steal him from you. I once saw that someone on another non-Disney message board had a certain Pez dispenser that they brought with them on every trip, no matter where it was. So in they had all kinds of random pictures - without people in them - of Pez dude in Europe, with various attractions behind him, or Pez dude sitting at a diner, Pez dude sitting next to a pastry, all kinds of things. I envision that kind of future for Surfin' Stitch!

Surfin'Stitch those outfits on your Stitch are so cute!
Do you make them yourself, or did it come with the stuffed animal?

And also... WHEN was Wilbur walking around the park!?

From Summer 1992 - Mickey and Minnie were hanging around New Orleans Square (and I never see them there anymore):

From Summer 1994 - Just a little over a year after ToonTown had opened, and the line to meet Mickey backstage at his house was soooooooo long, but worth it in the end:

Here's another two!

But this stupid computer is soooooooo slow and old that it took me, literally, about 3 HOURS to resize the pictures I used for the signature and insert them, along with the avatar! Arrrrrrggggghhh! That is why I don't bother with resizing for my Trip Report - can you imagine how much time it would take me to resize all of those pictures if it took as long as it did for the ones in my signature?!!!

Just an FYI - most big photo storage sites (like photobucket.com, flickr.com & tinypic.com) allow you to resize pictures as they are uploaded. The photos can also be edited online - adding text & much more involved operations. These operations can be slow too, but due only to load on the sites' servers.

You know, I think its all just luck for our trips. We usually get our best character shots when we're randomly passing by them! Either that, or having a character meal, that way you are guaranteed to get pictures with them !!!

& I hope you have a fantastic time at DLR.. OH and get to take some sweeeet shots with some cool characters. I personally LOOOOOVE Frozone now, 10x more because of how cool he was when we took a pic with him (and no one really wanted to take pictures with him ?!?!!?).

When there was no one waiting for him, he went over to the ice cream cart and took a couple of basking whiffs of the cold air, gave us a thumbs up and walked back to his photo spot! He is SOOO COOL (pun intended)

Victorious! We were there for a week and were on a mission to find hecka characters. And we did! Here are a few favorites –

(Trip was me & my BFF)

at the character breakfast (we also saw the Winnie-the-pooh characters, chip & dale, Fairy Godmother, and Minnie –of course, we were at the Plaza!- )

immediately following a splashdown! woohoo!

Pics not here include our other character breakfast photos, Goofy, Pluto, Buzz, LOTS of princesses, & Mickey, of course! Plus there were some we met twice. Just goes to show that if you put your mind to it, it’s easy and fun to find characters! Yay!

You won't find Jack Sparrow in the parks anymore. His last appearances were some time in November.

Cutbacks.

Cutbacks.

Nope. I kidnapped him last time I was there and brought him home to live with me! He's tied up in the spare room so he can't get away!
