I thought I'd preorder the Photopass CD for $99. It says it doesn't expire, so I figured I'd do it now while the offer is available.

My question - we're travelling with my brother's family and my parents. Can we all use the same preorder CD somehow? I know you get a card with the number on it, but would we need 3 cards with that number? Or can we use more numbers on the same CD account?

You can put several PhotoPass numbers on one order. We always end up with 2-3 just for us because I can't find it or DH and I are separated and we each get one, etc. We've also split a PhotoPass CD with 2 other families before.

Thanks, Beth! That's great. Makes it pretty much a no-brainer to spend $99 and split it 3 ways.

Like Beth said, you can definitely use multiple cards, multiple people. I think you can also have a "share site" so all the people can get on and edit/add borders, but I'm not 100% sure about that.

Definitely worth it if you can split it, IMO.

Just start editing your photos early...the website is painfully slow and very aggravating at times ;)

THis website has some good tips: http://www.stitchkingdom.com/disneysphotopass/

ETA: When you do get to the point of ordering your CD, watch for codes ( via e-mail or on the photopass site) that offer $15 of a CD. I found you can apply that to a second CD, making it about $5, which is handy if you have multiple people who want the CD....instead of taking the time to burn copies.

I just used a generic password so we could all edit the site as we wanted.

Then we ordered one CD and DH made copies.

That's def. the cheapest route...unless you are lazy like me and it can take months to actually sit down burn the CD for people or e-mail pics ;)

LOL! We're pretty lazy. I guess we're cheaper than we are lazy. ;)

That's what we did as well. Gave the password info to SIL & my mom (we went with the inlaws & then my parents ended up going with my nephew at the same time) & they both edited. Once we got the CD, we burned the copies & everyone got it. Worked great!
