    Lonely Planet Images Partners With Sendmypostcards.Com to Make Sharing Easier

    PRWeb – Fri, Jul 29, 2011

    New business, http://www.sendmypostcards.com signs deal with Lonely Planet Images enabling people to use the LPI image library to create personalised postcards.

    (PRWEB UK) 29 July 2011

    The sendmypostcards.com service enables a user to quickly create and edit a personalised postcard using their computer and then sendmypostcards.com prints and sends the postcard on their behalf.

    Images can be added from the global image gallery, facebook, flickr or their own camera/phone/computer to create a memorable postcard.

    An estimated 135 million plus postcards are sent and received per year in UK&I - summer holidays are a peak period.

    Lonely Planet Images is a digital image library with a unique and comprehensive collection of over 300,000 downloadable travel photographs taken by some of the best travel photographers in the business. The selected image collection for sendmypostcards.com captures the diversity of the world's countries: from the major tourist attractions to everyday scenes, from popular destinations to little known places off the beaten track.

    Why use sendmypostcards.com?

    Have you ever been on holidays and intended to send postcard home, but found it a hassle finding some stamps, the right card and postbox?

    Cards can be personalised with your chosen LPI image (or alternatively upload your own), a selection of handwriting and unique messages for front of card.

    The service costs €1.79 for the printing and postage of a single postcard yielding a consumer saving versus the high street. Cards can be created quickly and easily while on the go.
