I want to send an e-card today, but all free services, starting with Hallmark, demand various things of me: registration, upgrading my flash player, and so on. Some even require money. Some bombard me with pop-up windows.

Worse, they add music and/or flash animations to the mix. :(

I'd just like a pretty "Happy Birthday" pic with daisies, puppies or whatnot, to add "Happy birthday, dear friend" to it. Does anyone know of a free service that provides this? I'll be grateful.

Probably not the answer you want, but the result will be exactly what you want, for obvious reasons.

Yes, unfortunately, I can't do that, because I'm not going to sign the postcard. I'm going to do that as a SECRET ADMIRER, that's why I need the site.

...And thus, PorcineModder, did begin the Secret Admirer Wars. Do you now know why we fight?

"Right. I had to get up at ten o'clock at night, half an hour before I went to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work twenty-nine hours a day down at the mill and pay the mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our mother and father would kill us and dance on our graves singing Halleluja.

Aaargh, no! :) By no means shall I mix "real life" and "modder life", it becomes too confusing.
