Disney’s updated D23.com has much to offer
It’s more than a grand redesign: Disney’s D23.com website now offers more content, archival and new, than ever before.
It’s 98% brand new, filled with countless articles and over three million images from the Disney library. D23 is user friendly, combining unearthed treasures and new materials. Jeffrey Epstein, Disney’s Manager of Marketing, said the idea for the change to D23 was to take what fans loved about the website and add much more to the experience.
