Welcome to our Postcard service, ScotCards, where you can send ecards (Postcards) to friends and family or indeed anyone else that you'd like to communicate with.

The service is Free whether you use it as a Guest or a Member. As a Member you do get to use a greater range of services...

  • Address Book - Store all your friends' e-mail addresses, so sending an eCard will be quick and easy.

  • Calendar - Plan ahead by accessing your Calendar, where you can add birthdays, and other special days and appointments. Click on that day, and it will link you to that section. (Birthdays, Holidays, etc.)

  • Reminders - Store all your important dates so birthdays, anniversaries and other special events will never be forgotten, through our Reminder Notification e-mails.

  • Invitations - Send out Invitations to a special meeting or event and then track how many say they're coming or not and if they are bringing any guests with them.

  • My Favorites - Store all your favorite cards in 1 convenient location for easy access.

  • Card History - View all cards sent in the past 30 days, with option to cancel cards that have not been delivered yet.

  • My Account - Edit your membership information including e-mail address and password.

  • Record your Voice - You can record your Voice to send an eCard with your voice message.

  • Send your own image - Back from vacation, got new photos in your digital camera? Wouldn't you like to send them as eCards, to your friends, and family?

But if you just want to send a quick postcard then a Guest membership is all you'll need.

Do try to take some time to explore all the various features of our service and there are lots of features. You can add music, java effects, poems, different fonts and colors and Smiley characters, or indeed none of those, to all our eCards. There are also Invitation cards where you can monitor invitations that you send out inviting people to come to a special event or other activity. And have some fun with our ePhotoHunt - Spot the differences game and our Memory game.

Note that where you use the calendar to send out cards at a future time we run a daily cron job at 0:30 EST (Eastern Standard Time) so you might check what effect that has in your time zone.

Adding your own cards.
You can of course upload your own card to send out but if you have a good collection of pictures of an area in the world, or indeed pictures of your clan lands, do consider emailing them in to us and we will look at adding them to our categories.
