As of January 1, 2019, we have closed our forums. This is a decision we did not come to lightly, but it is necessary. The software our forums run on is just too out-of-date and it poses a significant security risk. The server software itself must be updated, and it cannot be without removing the forums.
So it is with a heavy heart that we say goodbye to our long-running forums. They came online in 2000 and brought together so many wonderful Disney fans. We had friendships form, careers launch, couples marry, children born ... all because of this amazing community.
Thank you to each of you who were a part of this community. You made it possible.
And a very special thank you to our Guides (moderators), past and present, who kept our forums a happy place to be. You are the glue that held everything together, and we are forever grateful to you. Thank you aliceinwdw, Caldercup, MrsM, WillCAD, Fortissimo, GingerJ, HiddenMickey, CRCrazy, Eeyoresmom, disneyknut, disneydani, Cam22, chezp, WDWfan, Luvsun, KMB733, rescuesk, OhToodles!, Colexis Mom, lfredsbo, HiddenMickey, DrDolphin, DopeyGirl, duck addict, Disneybine, PixieMichele, Sandra Bostwick, Eeyore Tattoo, DyanKJ130, Suzy Q'Disney, LilMarcieMouse, AllisonG, Belle*, Chrissi, Brant, DawnDenise, Crystalloubear, Disneymom9092, FanOfMickey, Goofy4Goofy, GoofyMom, Home4us123, iamgrumpy, ilovedisney247, Jennifer2003, Jenny Pooh, KrisLuvsDisney, Ladyt, Laughaholic88, LauraBelle Hime, Lilianna, LizardCop, Loobyoxlip, lukeandbrooksmom, marisag, michnash, MickeyMAC, OffKilter_Lynn, PamelaK, Poor_Eeyore, ripkensnana, RobDVC, SHEANA1226, Shell of the South, snoozin, Statelady01, Tara O'Hara, tigger22, Tink and Co., Tinkerbelz, WDWJAMBA, wdwlovers, Wendyismyname, whoSEZ, WildforWD, and WvuGrrrl. You made the magic.
We want to personally thank Sara Varney, who coordinated our community for many years (among so many other things she did for us), and Cheryl Pendry, our Message Board Manager who helped train our Guides, and Ginger Jabour, who helped us with the PassPorter-specific forums and Live! Guides. Thank you for your time, energy, and enthusiasm. You made it all happen.
There are other changes as well.
Why? Well, the world has changed. And change with it, we must. The lyrics to "We Go On" for IllumiNations say it best:
We go on to the joy and through the tears
We go on to discover new frontiers
Moving on with the current of the years.
We go on
Moving forward now as one
Moving on with a spirit born to run
Ever on with each rising sun.
To a new day, we go on.
It's time to move on and move forward.
PassPorter is a small business, and for many years it supported our family. But the world changed, print books took a backseat to the Internet, and for a long time now it has been unable to make ends meet. We've had to find new ways to support our family, which means new careers and less and less time available to devote to our first baby, PassPorter.
But eventually, we must move on and move forward. It is the right thing to do.
So we are retiring this newsletter, as we simply cannot keep up with it. Many thanks to Mouse Fan Travel who supported it all these years, to All Ears and MousePlanet who helped us with news, to our many article contributors, and -- most importantly -- to Sara Varney who edited our newsletter so wonderfully for years and years.
And we are no longer charging for the Live Guides. If you have a subscription, it's yours to keep for the lifetime of the Live Guides at no additional cost. The Live Guides will stay online, barring server issues and technical problems, for all of 2019.
That said, PassPorter is not going away. Most of the resources will remain online for as long as we can support them, and after that we will find ways to make whatever we can available. PassPorter means a great deal to us, and to many of you, and we will do our best to keep it alive in whatever way we can. Our server costs are high, and they'll need to come out of our pockets, so in the future you can expect some changes so we can bring those costs down.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for your amazing support over the years. Without you, there's no way us little guys could have made something like this happen and given the "big guys" a run for their money. PassPorter was consistently the #3 guidebook after the Unofficial and Official guides, which was really unheard of for such a small company to do. We ROCKED it thanks to you and your support and love!
If you miss us, you can still find some of us online. Sara started a new blog at DisneyParkPrincess.com -- I strongly urge you to visit and get on her mailing list. She IS the Disney park princess and knows Disney backward and forward. And I am blogging as well at JenniferMaker.com, which is a little craft blog I started a couple of years ago to make ends meet. You can see and hear me in my craft show at https://www.youtube.com/c/jennifermaker . Many PassPorter readers and fans are on Facebook, in groups they formed like the PassPorter Trip Reports and PassPorter Crafting Challenge (if you join, just let them know you read about it in the newsletter). And some of our most devoted community members started a forum of their own at Pixie Dust Lane and all are invited over.
So we encourage you to stay in touch with us and your fellow community members wherever works best for you!

Yeah!!!!!! I got 5 1/2 hours sleep last night it felt good body feels rejuvinated . but i still do not feel right but I'm not looking a gift horse in the mouth . got to call doctor soon i will keep everyone updated and THANK YOU all again !!!
Glad you got more sleep Jeff. Continued pixies from us hoping you feel better soon and the doctors can come up with something that can keep you fom getting them, or give you something to take at the onset of hem to make them not feel as worse.
Jeff I don't know if you drink a lot of water or not, but I have to admit drinking tons of water a day has helped mine not come as frequently. Although they say caffeine helps get rid of them, I actually foun drinkig less caffenated drinks helps keep them away too. Origins has a Peppermint cream you put on your temples, and that also does help(peppermint oil can do wonders for headaches, especially migraines).
Hang in there Jeff, I got a good book on Migraines there is lots that one can do. I will try to gather what I have found that helps me, like in everything somethings work for some and some for others. More pixies your way
Thanks for all the thoughts guys but i went to sleep not at 100% and woke up this morning feeling like I was at square 1 . i did not get my results from my doc from the brain mri . And i really wish this will end soon cause working last night was not fun at all!!!
So sorry to hear that and believe me, I know.
I was actually at the hospital for one week with intravenous painkillers for my migraine (this was before the diagnosis) then had the CT Scan and the MRI and it was AFTER i saw the Neurologist, he read the results, did a exam and that same day gave me a combination prescription of two pills and Immediately I got relief after weeks of using powerful painkillers.
Hang in there, sending more pixies and wishing you relief soon.

I hope you get results back soon Jeff. I also hope that it goes away soon. Working with Migraines is the worst. At least they're giving you something than only being able to take 1 ES Tylenol every 6 hours for it.
I had to leave work early today due to the headache acting up worst then my kids going at each other lol. im glad my doctor has appt on sunday cause she will be seeing me if i wake up like this again??
Please keep us informed of how it goes. Try to relax as much as you can tonight avoid (red wine, aged cheeses, nuts,chocolate, etc) if you can put a cold pack on your head, take a relaxing shower and tell everybody at home so it is a soothing evening for you.
It is amazing how debilitating Migraines are. Let us know when it is over so we can all rejoice with you, in the meantime wishing you some
