    You never mention the subscription ecards that are on the internet. There are wonderful sites available and are family friendly. The difference in these ecard sites are that you have to pay for the cards, however what you get for that payment is so much more than the free cartoon like ecards that are on the web today. The sites that I love are free of advertisements and popups. The ecards are artisically created by renowned artists. They have beatiful colors, animated and elegant music. Most of all when you send your ecard from my favorite www.pamelagladding.com ecard site, is the viewer receives the card and the message from the sender. No advertisements. no irritating pop ups with these ecards. That are a notch up from what you see on Hallmark or Bluemountain. The two sites I would recomment that have a more elegant ecard offering are www.jacquielawson.com and www.pamelagladding.com
