Greeting card makers

FreeCard Multimedia Greeting Cards
This greeting card maker lets you personalize your holiday greetings with text, sound, and graphics. You can also send e-mail, import graphics, and record messages. Or choose from four transitions for the slide show. You can either print the card or save it as an .EXE file. However, the sound quality is a little scratchy. Another drawback is that the program does not offer any options for changing font size or colour.

E-Motional Greeting Card Creator
This greeting card maker has everything you might expect to find, including an automatic e-mail function (requires a MAPI-compatible email client). It can also record and add sound files. The preview window let's you see cards before sending them. You can also change the font and background colour and even decide where the text message should be placed. You can also import images directly from a digital camera or scanner (TWAIN-compatible) with a simple click.

FunE-Cards: Christmas Set 1
It takes just a minute to create a greeting card. Pick from one of four cards (more at the company's Web site) that come with the program.

But you need to register first. Once registered, you can create an unlimited number of cards.
