J Hammon
Consider sending your family and friends an eCard to welcome in the New Year. Knowing that you are thinking of them will brighten their day.

Most eCard sites are easy to navigate. First, you select 'New Year' under the category options. Next, browse the cards offered on the site. If you click on the eCard image you will be able to view a larger picture and watch any animation (if applicable to your choice). Choose the card you would like to send and personalize it. You will need to input the recipient's name, email address and any personal message you would like to send them. You will need to input your name and email address, too. You can preview the eCard before you send. If you want to make changes you have that option. When you are finished click the 'send' button. The recipient will receive an email from the website containing a link to your eCard. Most eCard sites email you when the recipient views the card.

The majority of websites offer a limited number of free eCards. They really want you to sign up (for a fee) to become a member which gives you access to a larger variety of eCards. Usually a person can find an appropriate eCard for the occasion for free.

No software needs to be installed to send or receive eCards. Neither will it come as an attachment. The eCard must be viewed at the website where you made it. So, be sure that the recipient has web access.
