Can anyone recommend a good ecard site that doesn’t require a membership, etc? I tried googling, but the ones I found all require some kind of nonsense. :dubious:

If you don’t mind signing up for AOL, they have some free e-cards.

Ummm…wouldn’t signing up for AOL be even more cumbersome than becoming a member at an ecard site?

I never use ecards. Most of them will sell both you’re and the recipient’s email address to spammers.

[Someecards.com](http://someecards.com) is my personal favorite. You email them for free or you can purchase actual cards to mail out.

I guess I should mention that they’re a bit on the sarcastic side.
