Electronic congratulations. Postcards and congratulations by email
Instructions
A static postcard is convenient because you can send it without thinking about how exactly the recipient will view it (from a computer or phone), and whether he has Flash Player. Draw it yourself using the graphic editor that you know how to use, or download a suitable ready-made image from any free photo bank, and then add congratulatory inscriptions to it in the graphic editor. You can simply draw an image by hand and take a photograph. Attach the finished file (JPG or GIF format) to the message you are sending. To do this, while composing it, click the “Browse” button, go to the folder in which the file is located, select it, and then click the OK button. If the image does not attach automatically, click the “Attach” button and wait until the file is uploaded to the server. After that, making sure that all fields (for address, header and body of the message) are filled out correctly, click the “Submit” button.
The GIF format, unlike JPG, allows simple animation consisting of several images changing in a ring to be placed in a file. The recipient will be able to view such animation on their computer in almost any browser. The ability to display them depends on its model and firmware, and in the absence of such a function, installing one of the new versions of the UC browser will help. To download such images, use, in particular, the site located at the first link listed at the end of the article. Sending them by e-mail carry out as above.
Flash cards are distinguished by significantly higher quality animation, which, moreover, can be accompanied by sound effects. You can get to one of the sites where such postcards are available by clicking on the second of the links given at the end of the article. Having selected the desired postcard there (regular or Flash format), fill in the required fields, and a link to it will be sent to the recipient automatically. He can view it by clicking on this link.
Voice cards use a speech synthesizer located on the server. To go to the site with them, click on the third link at the end of the article. Having selected a design option, click on it and a page with an input form will load. Fill out all the fields of this form, including the recipient's address, and most importantly, enter the text that the synthesizer should pronounce. Select background music and voice. Check what happened using the “Listen” button, and then send the result to the recipient (whose computer must have Flash Player installed) by clicking the “Send” button.
Everything is very simple: I suggest using bright, wise, rare photographs and drawings by the authors, which are not actually postcards, but they are so fascinating that it’s hard to come up with ideas for them wishes or look for suitable quotes or parables- GREAT fun and great holiday
Such a “postcard” and congratulations will be original, unusual and, I am sure, will please the person close to you much more than a familiar picture.
