VOL. IV - No. 7 November 2, 2008 Online Since 1997

Welcome to our November 2008 Newsletter.  

We have worked hard this last month to make improvements to DLDHistory.com: We have redesigned our payment screen, our Deluxe Account is still $5 for 1 month, our Premium account is now available for 12, 24 or 36 months at only 84 cents per month, our Silver  Account is $1.67 per month and available for 12, 24 or 36 months, our Bronze Account is $2.50 per month for 12, 24 or 36 months, Our Lifetime Gold Account is only $60.00. We offer 10% discount if you renew ANY paid membership before your account expires.  And of course we still offer if you upgrade from Premium, Silver or Bronze to a GOLD account 100% of your previous donation goes toward your upgrade! The Payment Screen is now a step by step process.  We are also making changes to our List Screens (Attraction, Death, Injuries and Parades) this is to bring them into alignment with our site redesign that will be completed late next year. Our attraction screen now has the ability to filter the the items. This should make it alot easier to use. Also we are experimenting with color combinations. If you hate the colors let us know or wait a day we will probably change them :)

Thank you everyone for helping us make DLDHistory.com The Most Unique Disneyland History Site.
