Originally Posted By SuperDry "Style" does indeed look a bit garish, and I tend not to like "cirnivale"-type things, but from what I'm able to tell "Sytle" works for me somehow. It's a stylized version of a carnivale parade, if you pardon the pun.
Originally Posted By TDLFAN I give up on the "Style" Parade. Seems like the 'flights of fantasy in different classic styles' do not translate well to the fans in the rest of the world. I have no problem with it and I think the parade and water /land show mode of it are quite well done and fun to watch for an 8-week event. BTW..on page 1, the video is refered to as "Buzz Lightyear's Spaceranger spin". That is incorrect. TDL's ride is called "Buzz Lightyear's AstroBlasters".

Originally Posted By Park Hopper Ah, but TDL fan, unfortunatly only the enlightened few who visit the Tokyo boards on a regular basis get to see your photos. These hopfully will serve to spred the wonder of TDR to a wider audience.
Originally Posted By TDLFAN >>Ah, but TDL fan, unfortunatly only the enlightened few who visit the Tokyo boards on a regular basis get to see your photos. These hopfully will serve to spred the wonder of TDR to a wider audience<< Well, I do sneak links to my TDR pictorials in other sections of LP. It's just that seeing pictorials of stuff I have already covered from TDR here weeks later, makes me feel as if all the hard work and dedication I put into this hobby for the enjoyment of all here seems worthless and unappreciated to me. But then again, I choose to do this on my own time and I am not a staff member of LP, so I will shut up and not complaint about it. After all 10,000+ hits on my pictorials do put it in perspective.

Originally Posted By TDLFAN There were a couple of times early on when I started posting here when Doobie did put a footnote about some of my reports on his updates, and even asked if I could help out with Mickey's 75th statues last november. I appreciated that, but as I said before...I only do this on my time and do not want to be tied up just because I have to meet a deadline in regards to reports... However Doobie is more than welcomed to post "attention to.." notes in regards to my pictorials at any time, and I am doing it for free. I know the guy is busy...and I do not expect that from him anyways..which is why I do my own networking and shamelessly plug a link here and there...
Originally Posted By Park Hopper Well, with 10,000+ hits you can't feel too worthless or unappreciated. I for one greatly appreciate your photos. I can't get to TDR nearly as much as I'd like. You're there all the time! You help me miss it less.

Originally Posted By TDLFAN It's true. I understand the reason for that was to allow for more room to better manouvering of the steamer boats in that narrow part of the river, because the loading dock's design was causing congestions in that area. But don't quote me on it; it's what I've been told.
