Front Page Facelift -- Check It Out!

Come check out the newly redesigned PassPorter.com front page which now lists featured news, articles, podcasts, posts, blogs, announcements, tips, photos and more! Each feature is listed in chronological order (newest first) and is accompanied by an awesome photo from our photo archive. This is a great place to stop on a daily or weekly basis to get your dose of Disney and travel magic!

You may notice that we've already featured some posts from the message boards -- perhaps even yours? In the future, every community member will be able to nominate a post to appear on the front page, including your own posts. Watch for that feature soon!

We'll be tweaking our front page design in the weeks to come based on your feedback, so please let us know what you think of the front page by posting here or sending me a private message.

Thank you in advance!

Thumbs up Wonderful!

It's so much easier for me to read. I have a reading problem and too many items on a page makes it difficult for me to understand. This new page is much cleaner with less distractions for me. It makes me want to come back to the site more often. Thanks so much!

I did not dislike the old look, but I do like the new look better.

I love how you are always improving the website and never letting it become stale.

Shari, welcome to the PassPorter community! Regarding your confusion, I haven't changed the message boards, and the old front page offered even less information on the discussion threads than the new one. The only real relationship between the new front page design and the message boards is that I am now featuring cool posts from the boards on the front page.

To see a list of discussion forums, go to PassPorter.com - Walt Disney World, Cruise, Disneyland travel guidebooks, tips, planning, articles, photos, and information. To see new posts in the forums, click List New Posts in the orange bar near the top of the screen. I hope this helps.
