One facility most sites need is a function that provides exposure to bring in more visitors. A fun way of doing this, especially around the Christmas holiday season, is to create a festive electronic postcard system so that site visitors can send each other greetings. Your visitors get to have fun creating, customizing, personalizing and sending their e-cards, and you get lots of extra visitors through word of mouth. Those e-card recipients then go on to reply to the e-card or send their own messages to new people creating a viral effect. In this article, Chris Garrett will show how, using ASP.NET and the System.Drawing namespace, we can create and customize a graphical greetings card. Then we will go on to send this card to email recipients with an HTML email message. The message will contain a link to allow the recipient to come back to your site and send a reply or create a new message of their own.
