Thanks Wee! We are sitting here getting ready to go to breakfast and then the ship! That will be the sign on our door today. :thumbsup2
 
Hi everyone - I just returned from a 4 day cruise and took a few door signs with me on Post It Photo Paper. The quality of the print is great, the paper did an awesome job with that but when I pulled them off the door at the end of the cruise, the sticky back pulled some of the paint with it. My door had been re-painted at some point because the color under the layer that was peeled off was the same. I happen to see that condition on several other doors as well from signs that either used tape or sticky back paper.

The cabin across the hall where my other family members were in didn't have a problem. I peeled them off with no paint coming off.

I feel bad and will not be using that paper again. I guess magnetic paper or magnetic tape will be the way to go.

I just wanted other people to know so it didn't happen to them. I also don't want DCL to prohibit the door signs because of this problem.
 
Here are our door signs from our cruise in October...

I definately recommend doing this...it just makes it that much easier to find your door! :banana:

Thanks for the warning. I used the Post-It paper a few weeks ago and it worked out just fine, but I guess if the door has been freshly repainted it could be a problem. Like you say, better safe than sorry...

what cute designs!
 
It's not a door sign, per se, but I thought I'd share this for everyone who will be cruising this month. I made it out of Home Depot Mickey Heads (flame suit on). I hope I got the demensions correct to fit over our door circle!

I'm not as creative as most of you so I'm going this route. Still personal.

Okay, here is my first attempt at a door sign. Hope you like it!

Very nice! I have been trying to make a sign with that same picture but couldn't get the mouse ears alone. :confused3 I think it looks so neat with the water!

Yes, you are not refering to a site on the internet, but a place on your hard drive. Post you picture on a free site and refer to that URL.
