I'm going to have to agree and say that Characters shouldn't be considered CMs in this contest... You don't say, "Hey I'm going to the CM Breakfast tomorrow at MK. Do you think Donald will be there?" You know? CMs are not in roles per se. You can ask a CM where the bathroom is, but you can't ask a Character, or a CM in a role. I don't think the Character pictures should be considered for this contest.

From what they say, everyone is part of the cast. If Speck says no, that is fine though. But I doubt it considering he has posted in this thread after the piglet photo.

This Spectromagic dancer gracefully picked up a bottle of water that had rolled into the parade route path to get it out of the way from the oncoming floats and performers.

Perhaps...but without the people in the costumes (CMs) you wouldn't have characters...

:)

I have no problem removing my entry if it doesn't fit with the subject of the contest.

I wasn't trying to create controversy or anything. I just assumed that a castmember themed photocontest meant any Disney World worker other than a character. Otherwise, wouldn't everyone just post pics of characters? Wouldn't everyone rather look at a photo of Mickey than a photo of a mousekeeper? And isn't it too easy to resort to a character photo? Everyone has at least one good photo of Goofy or Pooh, but it's a fun challenge to find a good picture of a janitor. Am I right? Maybe somebody out there has an amazing photograph of Cinderella and couldn't wait to enter it somewhere, and didn't, and instead entered a so-so pic of a busdriver.

Either way, I like my pic. And there are CMs and characters in it, so I'm covered either way.

I doubt any pics will be asked to be removed, and that's totally fine. I would feel bad if they were.

Good luck, everyone! :)

I had a couple of good shots of my favorite waitress at 50's Prime Time Cafe, but I don't have time to search old albums for the pictures and scan them. But, these guys look like they're having a lot of fun:

I agree, there already was a Characters Contest.

CM's are CM's....regardless of their area of employment within the WDC
You the boss of this contest. But I think there should be a character and then a non-character contest. So I will remove my picture and save it for a non-character contest :wave:
