Pioneered the personalized, animated short. Lets you put your family's faces on a variety of animated and still ecards. A bit tough to sort out the free cards from the paid ones. You can only send still ecards for free. To find them, check only the option for "postcards."

Not for the faint of heart. Ecards with attitude - and sometimes words you don't want your kids to see. Browse this site only if you're not easily offended and are over 18.
