Webshots Blog

New Webshots Photo Postcards for our Premium members only are almost here, so let’s take a sneak peak at the experience and some of the key features! To view the screenshots in full size, please click on them.

Selecting Photos for Postcards
You can send any public photo—both member and professional, even your own—as a postcard by clicking on the postcard icon on the photo page.

Choosing Recipients
Simply choose your recipients by typing in their email addresses or selecting them from your Webshots address book in you Account.

Personalizing
Write as little or as much as you want! You can also choose one of our messages for popular occasions like Birthdays, Holidays, and Just Because.

Sending
You can send your postcard right away or choose a date in the future—this is especially great for birthdays and holidays. You can easily preview your card, and if you don’t need to make any edits, just hit the “send card” button and let the fun begin! You’ll get an email notification once it picked up, too.

Receiving Postcards
Your recipients will get an email letting them know they have a postcard from you.

On the pickup page, they’ll be able to view the photo you selected and click on it to “flip” it over and read your message. How fun! They’ll also have the options to download the photo to their desktop with the Webshots Desktop Application.

So what do you think of the new Photo Postcards? Let us know in the comments, and also share some of your favorite photos that you’ll send as postcards.
