Yes, believe it or not, writing and reading Digital Postcards is a free service. We get our money from advertising sponsors. That's why you see those banners on our pages.

A Digital Postcard is a web page that is created when you fill out and submit the postcard form. You can have a look at our sample postcard. We send an E-Mail to the recipient, and he or she will be informed that a postcard is waiting for him or her in our post office. You can even overwrite our standard E-Mail message or add some text of your own.
Contents
Yes, you can select pictures, colors, backgrounds, and music files. You can even link to any picture and sound on the Web.
Contents
Sure. Just upload the file to our server before you create your postcard. The upload program will return your file's new URL. On the postcard program's main form you simply enter this URL into the "custom image" or "custom sound" field.
Contents
Only the recipient and you can access the postcard file. Of course, our Webmaster could read it too, but you can be sure he's too busy and will not be willing to read hundreds of postcards every day. Each Digital Postcard has its own claim check number. It is impossible to view a postcard without entering this number first and only the sender and the recipient will know it.
Contents
Our postal clerk discards each postcard two weeks after it has been written. Sorry, there's no way to recover these postcards. However, there is a return receipt checkbox in our postcard form. If you activate it, you will be notified by email when the recipient accesses his or her postcard.
Contents
No, up to now we have located all "missing" postcards. There are several possible reasons why you're not able to find your postcard. Please send mail to our E-Mail robot, missing@all-yours.net, for a detailed explanation.

You are recycling on this page. This is a browser related problem. You should access The Digital Postcard with an up-to-date browser like Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Internet Explorer.
Contents
Our program eliminates possibly malicious code from a postcard before it is saved on our server. So nobody can annoy you with a JavaScript bomb in his or her postcard. Also, "conventional" computer viruses can't be transmitted with a postcard, because we do not transmit executable binaries to your computer.
Contents
Yes, you can have your own Digital Postcards. They are very effective in promoting your Web site because there is a link to it on each card. Send E-Mail to our Digital Postcard autoresponder, response@all-yours.net, and you will receive a detailed instruction within just a few minutes.
