I think the issues with the barges were knowable, if not obvious, in a reality-based evaluation of this proposal from the start. At the very least knowable in a reality-based engineering and visual design review. I can't believe this ever went forward. The five barges are so ugly and huge...

The barges are horrible and ruin Epcot's atmosphere. I'm rarely a complainer, but I posted this over a year ago on a different thread and I feel this even more strongly now that the barges have been there for a while: Now the show itself requires specific lagoon viewing locations to properly...

I just found this thread after listening to this Tomorrow Society episode. I am 1000% in agreement with Len's comments re: the Harmonious barges. I'm a big big pixie-duster, spend lots of $$ at Disney, and I take most changes in stride. But the barges are atrocious. Perfectly manicured...

What is the "early opening window" ? I'm sorry, I'm sure it's in this thread somewhere but I can't find it! Thanks!

Does anyone know if the Jambo club level rooms have been upgraded to the larger TVs??

Does anyone have info on when the LAST halloween party will be? Trying to plan ahead for my Wine and Dine Half Marathon weekend... (which begins w/ race expo opening on Nov. 1, and the races following on Nov. 2, 3, and 4.)

Yeah, I'm just hoping the actual rooms don't match these photos... haha! I need to see some pics of the actual finished product before I fully judge whether I'd like to stay in these rooms. Plus I don't think I've ever stayed in a hotel room with laminate floors before... I'm wondering if...

I'm awaiting photos of these new rooms as I plan my November trip. I always stay at Pop but I don't like the new room concept from the limited info available. Trying to give the benefit of the doubt, meanwhile I hope Disney releases photos asap so those of us booking stays can make an informed...

I would love to see some more photos -- I agree, maybe I'll feel better about it if more photos emerge really showing the space! I'll still keep an open mind while waiting to see more. And maybe these photos don't accurately represent the finished product. Still, I just personally don't like...

These new rooms are aesthetically sterile and cold-looking, and not at all a warm, cozy, calming space I'd want to come back to after a long day in the parks. I did stay in Art of Animation family suite once, so I get the concept of the murphy bed. It worked within the layout of that AoA...

Did you try my fix in post #203? I am not at liberty to update my OS beyond Windows 7 Professional on my work machine, but reinstalling Roboto worked for me. You have to make sure you're installing the new January 2015 Roboto, not an old version. I downloaded it directly from Google Fonts...

Yes, I have tinkered with it a lot. No luck! Thanks, though. I don't expect you to be able to fix this, I just thought I'd see if I was missing something obvious! Thanks again. EDIT - I fixed it! Apparently Google released an update to the Roboto font in January. I have Roboto installed...

Hi! That screenshot was from firefox 38.0.5 (up to date). Also looks bad in the latest ie. Chrome is better. I am on Windows 7 Professional. For what it's worth this is not unique to your website, so it might be my issue, but I'm not the only one with the issue (lots of people have this...

The new design looks great! The font is rendering quite badly for me on windows (it's fine on a mac and iphone). See screenshot. Is the font Roboto? Roboto always renders badly for me on windows. Most Google fonts render badly for me on Windows. Does anyone have any suggestions? (I'm on a...

Bring a lightweight jacket. Bring a small travel umbrella. I am surprised how many people are suggesting not to bring them! I lived in Florida for years. In the summer it is often freezing INDOORS while hot outdoors. The A/C is cranked so high you are instantly freezing. Without a jacket I...
