Disney Parks, Then and Now
This community has been setup for Disney fans, interested in seeing how theme parks change over the years. The board is open both to discussion of the topic, and to the posting of photos of a 'then and now' or 'before and after' nature. We're especially interested in sets of photos, showing one park location, during different time periods, preferably taken from the same vantage point. Sort of like this:
While this community is primarily devoted to Disney parks, I will not protest if there are other relatable 'then and now' photos. Before and after Coney Island images would be cool. So would the New York World's Fair grounds. It's all relative.
A few guidelines:
1. Assuming you're using someone else's photo for the 'before' or 'after' image, please cite the book, magazine, website or person you got it from. It's only fair, right?
2. Try to keep on subject when posting. I don't care where the Comment threads go, but I'd like to keep the main posts on the subject of 'then and now' discussion. That doesn't mean that every post has to have a then an now photo set. Discussion of the parks and how they've changed over the years is fine!
No more restrictions for now. This will be a lightly moderated community. I'm doing this because I want to see what other Disney fans can come up with.
Oh, and if there's a subject you'd like to photograph, but you don't have a quality "before" picture to begin with, just post a request in the community. I'm sure I or someone else will have something to help get you started.
