This is a great little
program that enables you to create and send postcards to friends and family via
email. You simply run the program, select the picture you wish to send, write
your text, fill in the email address and click Send.
The picture can be
anything you wish - a previously saved image, picture from the web, graphic,
animated GIF, or you can even scan an image directly into SoftPostCard. Once
you have chosen the picture and typed the accompanying text, the postcard is
translated into an HTML page for transporting across the web.
The
recipient of the email will receive a message requesting that they click on a
link, which will transfer them directly to the postcard that you’ve
created. On receipt of their first postcard they will need to install a small
piece of software to enable them to view it, but there is a direct link
included in the message they receive. The file is tiny and will take no more
than a minute or so to download. Once they have done this they can view any
postcard you send immediately.
There are no options available for
customising the display and layout of the postcard, which is a shame as this
would create a truly personal item, but despite this, SoftPostCard offers a
creative alternative to sending a simple email - great for when abroad
