Bill Atkinson PhotoCard Lite: 100 Photo Apps, Day 75
What I like: This apps lets you send virtual postcards, but that’s not all. Like other services, such as Postagram, Bill Atkinson PhotoCard Lite allows you to send photo postcards through the mail—yes, the real-world mail of genuine postcards—and do it straight from your iPhone, without ever licking a stamp. The service’s postcards are oversized and in brilliant color.
From the app maker:
With Bill Atkinson PhotoCard you can easily make dazzling, high quality postcards on your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch, and send them on-the-spot, either through e-mail, or through the US Postal Service. The application is amazingly easy to use. To create a PhotoCard, select one of Bill Atkinson’s exquisite nature photographs or use one of your own personal photos. Then, flip the PhotoCard over to type your custom message on the back. For a fun touch, jazz up your PhotoCard with your choice of decorative stickers and stamps. If you’re e-mailing your message, it can even include an audible greeting in a voice note. When you’ve finished your creation, send it off to any e-mail or postal address in the world!
