Send it to us in the mail. We'll scan it in.2. Write on the back of an actual postcard. Take a picture of it (or scan it) and send it to us by e-mail. Then mail the paper postcard to someone you care about. Or to a stranger. Or us. Whatever. 3. Make your own.

You can send a photo as an attachment to an e-mail. Please resize images so they aren't ginormous.2. You can send us a link to a photo that's on your personal photo site -- like flickr or ofoto. This is the easiest option for us.3. Videos need to be up on another site -- like youtube or google video -- for us to Johnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04028115877435251407noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-389753100202399688.post-2781676381141419472007-06-30T11:55:00.000-07:002007-06-30T11:58:11.011-07:00what is this site?Visit this site for the musings of John D.
