Show me your photopass Borders and add-ons!

[Aryn]

I have been hearing so much about this photopass thing, and I am so excited to get the CD when we go in October!! I would like to see some of these borders and signatures and stuff that the CMs add onto the pictures.

Where can you get these add-ons?

Can you do them over time, or do they have to be done all at once?

I have also heard that sometimes you can lose the stitch in the hat, or simba if you wait too long. Can someone explain that process to me so I know what to do?

Thanks! can't wait to see your "enhanced" pictures of WDW!!

sorry i dont have any pics to show u but i can help u out. first, while in wdw you have to find people with large cameras (mostly at the major areas of the parks). they will take your picture and give you a card. after you take all of your pictures in disney, when u get home u go on the website and retreive your pictures. once you retreive then you have 30 days to buy them and then they are taken off the website. before the 30 days are up you can add on borders and icons as well as captions. the pictures dont have to be ordered all at once but do have to be ordered before the 30 days is up. and to answer your last question i dont think that the characters get taken away if you wait too long (at least mine didnt). i love my pictures as they all sit in my office. hope i helped you out and have fun in wdw.

A summary of the add ons would be great - That way DW can look before we go and cut down time at the kiosk who am I kidding!

Gotta Try though

I dont have the pictures to show you but when we went and had ours done at mgm the cm had us hold the hat and they actually added stitch in the picture.
when I got home I actually pulled it up to see it on the computer.
they had all of our pictures up for us to see on the photopass website and from there you can add your own signatures and borders yourself.
hope that helps.

For us, the CM had DD11 & DS8 sitting on a bench together.

When we looked at the picture at the photo store...Stitch was sitting next to the kids eating an ice cream cone. So cute!!

I had to buy that picture in a 5X7 & 8X10.

I have a photopass currently online, if you pm me your email addresses I can invite you to see my photos. We have some one with the border done, one with a group of little girls holding Tink and one with a little boy holding baby Simba. They are great addons!

I would show you some of mine. Technically challenged.

Edited to add: Figured it out obviously. Enjoy.

We added this border to our picture.

I love the Tink border! So you can add on borders at home and get the $99 cd?

I am so confused

I thought that you had to do the borders and add-ons at a kiosk and then they burned the cd and gave you a release to print your own.

More pictures please!!

Thanks

My picture was from 8/05 and they didn't have the CD option then. At that time, you could add borders in the parks or at home. I added ours at home.

I think that when you go to get your CD, a CM will help you pick borders and add ons for your photos. I'm not sure if these same items are available for you when you get home. I'd like to know, too. That CD is a good bargain!

 

[CF'er]

the CM went through the pics and added the appropriate border and autograph to the pictures. I didn't really get to choose so I don't know if you can or not. She did try to use the best pic's. I have both the original and the modified pics on the CD.

Worth every penny.

I'm SO excited about getting the CD in May!!! Last year I bought several of the pictures from photopass because they were SO good. I added the borders at home and they turned out GREAT!!!

 

[a*lil*bit*goofy]

I just want to make sure i have this straight: if u buy the cd, when u are buying it u can have borders and siggies added. things like park names, character signatures, and adding stitch and tinkerbell to the photos, right?

THEN they save the ORIGINAL pic without the add ons and they save the updated version with the border or what not. that way when u get home u can print it out either way right?

NOW here are my questions:
-what is the largest size that you can print out at home for best quality. will we be able to print 5x7 and 8x10 with prime quality??
-the borders will print out on the photos?
-what other choices are there, other than Stitch or Tink being added in, (and simba) and for borders, are they mostly 'magic kingdom' 'epcot' 'animal kingdom' 'mgm' titles

-the borders will print out on the photos? Yes

-what other choices are there, other than Stitch or Tink being added in, (and simba) and for borders, are they mostly 'magic kingdom' 'epcot' 'animal kingdom' 'mgm' titles

I didn't really get a choice, they just sort of did it while I watched. They work on one side of the counter and you view the pictures on a monitor on your side of the counter. I was happy with what they did. I suppose if you wanted to ask for certain pic's to be done they would.

Hope this helps.

We just got back from WDW last week and have a bunch of photos on the Photopass website...can we order the CD online? I see alot of comments about ordering the CD at a kiosk from a CM.....
Just a little confused here..

 

[CF'er]

you can only purchase the CD at the parks. They can be purchased at MTTF and Epcot also at GF Resort.

Maybe this will change.

How many photos will fit on the CD? We are going to be there two weeks and I want to try to get as many pics as we can on the CD.

This whole PhotoPass CD thing is the best thing ever!!! I am the Official Photographer for our clan and am rarely
ever IN any of the photos we take on vacation. Learning about the $99 CD was extremely exciting for me. We normally
buy at least 1 photo from each park anyway - at nearly $20 at each park normally, doing the CD for $106 (after tax added)
was a no brainer for us! We headed over to Downtown Disney and the CM had us take a guess as to how many pics we
had -- we thought ohhh maybe 100, turned out we had well over 200 on there! At that time we didn't purchase because
we were going to add two more days to our trip, so she added in some borders and signatures to our girls' favorite
pictures. After it was all done we went over to Epcot and the CM there added in fun stuff! Stitch, Simba, Tinkerbell,
Borders and "Stamps" with the year on them (not sure what to call them so I call them "stamps" LOL). Our only glitch is that
Stitch is missing from the hat in the photo we have of the girls in MGM, but I think I can have him 'photoshopped' in somehow!
LOL Anyway, at the end of it all, we had 340 pictures on there (both the edited ones and the originals). The CM said she
has seen as many as 590 go onto one CD. So, my suggestion, do as we did and stop at just about each and every PhotoPass
Photographer you see! We stopped along Main Street several times because of lighting and views of the Castle. We also had
some done in the Judge's Tent of each girl individually and together. We just kept stopping and getting more shots taken and I
am so glad we did ... some of them are just PRICELESS!! They even took a ton of pictures during and after our Bibbidi Bobbidi
Boutique visit (all 5 of us were done - 3 girls, dh and I). It was worth the $106!!! I don't think anyone will be disappointed with it.
