Questions from a newbie

[LilyAnn]

I've been looking around the forum for a while now. We've been to Disney many times and have taken numerous photos and I have many Disney layouts. I'm active on other forums too. My question is this...
1-When posting layouts here do they have to be from kits designed specifically from Disney layouts or could I use any kit I have in my stash?
2-When posting layouts do they have to be made using one of the challenges from this site?

Hi LilyAnn,

I'm not sure I quite follow your first question. Are you asking if there are any restrictions as far as what you can use to adorn your layouts? If so, the answer is no. You can use any products you have in your stash. For example, I bought a really great ice cream kit from another website that I'm trying to use on a layout I'm currently working on (i.e. the kit is all about ice cream and shakes... no Disney-inspired elements in it at all).

As far as your second question, the answer is no. You can upload layouts in the Gallery anytime - it doesn't have to be related to a challenge. The one rule we do have here that other sites don't have is that you need to post a link to your photo in the forums. i.e. if you complete a layout about the Jungle Cruise at the Magic Kingdom, first upload it to the Gallery, then post a link to your photo in the 'Jungle Cruise' thread of the Magic Kingdom forum.

I hope these answer your questions. Just holler if you have any more.

Thanks. You did answer my questions. Off to post some layouts now!
