I like the cartoony-ness of it. It makes it seem like something out of a dream.

Another deviant thought the same way. I didn't really like the vintage option in PS EL so just kept using filters until I got the look I wanted. ~snow-white-kt said she worked that cart and it is called Popcorn 7. I didn't realize the carts were numbered! At any rate, she said since it is out-of-the-way it is an easier to cart to work alone.

I think it would be a nice base for a paint over or vector. The canopy looks so cool.

Everything is numbered at WDW. Even our dressing assignments were numbered. Fanfare was 1, Orchestra 3. It's like the main manager is Park 1, the head parade manager Parade 1.

I guess I didn't realize about the numbering. Do I have a program that can do a vector? Would I know how to use it?

I don't think so. I think Elements lacks the pen tool, which is the only way Photoshop can make a vector. This site lists a bunch of free programs that support vector: [link]

~ Disney certainly does know how to dress and showcase every little detail.

It really does remind me of a dream I recently had, i woke up and I saw this picture, and I thought, "Am I still dreaming of me dreaming of me seeing this?"

~ sometimes I cannot tell the difference between dreams... reel life and real life... my husband accuses me of forgetting to tell him something and when I insist I did tell him he says I must have dreamed it.

Thank you. Was lucky the cart was closed and no one was standing around so I could get a nice, clear picture

It's no luck. It's your good eyes.

Thank you kindly. Having a decent camera helps even though I often have to ask Tina when she is with me about certain settings

With me taking good photography is only a matter of chance. Nice work.

Oh, me too.... I'm getting better though. When I was young I used to cut people's heads off in the pictures

Aw, this really is nostalgia for me! I used to work Outdoor Foods in MGM, which means the popcorn and ice cream stands. This is Popcorn 7 to anyone who is in ODF, and it's the first place I ever worked by myself. ^_^ I trained for three days, then they sent me here (it's a pretty good first day location- on Mickey Ave, it's pretty out of the way).

Thanks so much for posting this, and the original picture! You gave me a lot of really wonderful memories to think of!

How cool I know someone who worked there !! I was thrilled to get the picture with no one standing in the way. It was off season so it was closed. Popcorn 7.... didn't realized they were numbered !!

Thank YOU for the fave, the comments and looking at both pictures. If you have a printer that does good quality you can print this off. If not, I can print you a copy and mail it to you ~ Phyllis

I will eat a bit of popcorn now and then. It is a different hybrid than other corn. I have allergies to corn
