Adding an eCard service
Hi!
I'd like to look allowing visitors of http://www.SuperNaturalWoman.com to send eCards, either immediately or on a certain date. Can someone suggest a good URL/service?
Thanks!

I think if you do a search for cardsites it will pull up what you are looking for. A google search.

eCard will depend on the complixity level and what your hosting providers backend support is.
A great site I always check is http://resourceindex.com/
go to there PHP area if you host support PHP, otherwise CGI should be fine for 90% of the hosts out there.
If nothing there suites your needs you will have to get someone to custom script. On average most people (like myself) have a going rate of aroun 30-50 an hour for custom scripting. However many people work out deals to lower costs etc.

I use a program called Postcard Direct on many of my sites. This allows an e-card to be sent directly to someones mailbox. Take a look at my site Nature Postcards to get an idea of what it can do.
Very well done and easy to set up.

Thanks for the replies so far. I forgot to mention that I want the ecard service to be linked to PayPal. None of the suggested sites so far are fee based.
Keep the responses coming!
Thanks!

Unless you're creating actual cards (see the photo printing sites for more information on that), I agree with druagord. A pay service to send an e-card isn't likely to be profitable.

I came across eCardMax from cgi2k.com. I think this script will help solve your problem it is a complete ecard with Address Book, Upload Photo, Calendar, Email Reminder, My Favorites, Card History. Play Flash, Java Applet, Unique Skin background, Smilies, Midi, Real Audio, Window Media Audio, and Poem. Voice Recorder allows senders to record their voice and send an ecard with their voice message with it.
Hope this will help.
