Bill Atkinson PhotoCard
Who is Bill Atkinson? He had a hand (or both hands) in the first Macintosh computer as well as the MacPaint and HyperCard Mac applications. Today, he’s a world-renowned nature photographer, which brings us to his app.
Bill Atkinson PhotoCard is a free app that lets you create gorgeous high-resolution postcards and send them by e-mail or by the U.S. Postal Service. E-mail is always free. And though sending by USPS costs between $1.50 and $2.00 per card, depending on how many print-and-mail credits you purchase, the 8 1⁄2-x-51⁄2-inch postcards are stunning. Printed on heavy, glossy stock on a state-of-the-art HP Indigo Digital Press and laminated for protection against damage in the mail, they’re as beautiful as any postcard you’ve ever seen.
You can create a postcard using one of the 200 included nature photos by Bill Atkinson, as shown in Figure 17-7, or any picture in your Photos library.
