You said it. And also their tactic of creating artificial bottlenecks at Space Mountain so that you HAVE to see your picture because there is so much foot traffic at the exit.

Where is the actual harm coming from? Do you really think someone flashing a kid on the playground is equivalent to a girl flashing the camera at Disneyland are equivalent behaviors?

I have never run into this stuation at a Disney theme park.

>>...Disney has found to MAXIMIZE the profit, they have three types of photos. The PhotoPass in park stuff, the On-Ride photos, and then the Character Dining Photo Packages. They are all treated differently, and you can't combine them.<<
We combined them on our PhotoPass at WDW.

And I am not that familiar with WDW, but I know you CAN'T combine the different "groups" at the Disneyland Resort!

We have had are pictures wiped out because of someone else doing something and where never able to see them, this happened at least 3 times at Tower of Terror, and Once or twice at Screamin'. I thought it was a shame that because of someone else we could not even see the pic, and we are pretty open to what people do who knows maybe we wouldn't have minded it. As far as Splash Mountain we are always lucky to get our own log and we love to make faces on it or favorite pic so far is us doing the Three monkey's skit (Hear no evil, Speak no evil, See no evil) which now is kind of apropos.
