Oh My Goodness!!!
This site is definitely worth checking out, because you won't find online greeting cards like these anywhere else! The cards are filled with slapstick humor, well-drawn with cute cartoon-like animations, and come in a variety of styles. Most of the cards are appropriate for any audience, although there are a lot of dirty or naughty ones!
Graphics
The wonderful artwork on this page was the thing which really got my attention. A lot of online greeting cards have mediocre graphics, but not these ones. A lot of the cards are animated as well.
My only complaint with these cards is that the text is really badly done. All of the cards use big bold blue text, which doesn't always match the rest of the card. Luckily it's not very noticeable because the quality of the pictures makes up for it. But still, it does look pretty bad.
Also, your personalized message doesn't really get integrated into the card itself. When you send the card to someone, basically they'll just see a picture on the left side and your message on the right side.
Variety
This site has cards for nearly every occasion and featuring a ton of different themes! The list of categories is HUGE! They have cards for Anniversary, April Fool's Day, Arbor Day, Autumn, Back to School, Baseball, Basketball, Bastille Day, Being late, Big brother/spycam, Bikers, Birthday, Business and money, Blue Moon, Bon Voyage, Bosses, Boxing, Breaking up, Bus drivers... And that's only the A's and B's! So, trust me, they have just about everything.
User Experience
This page is well-designed and is very visually appealing. You select the category you want with a drop-down listbox, and then a page loads up with thumbnails of all the cards for that category. When you find the card you want, you can click on it to see it in full-size, and then click on "Compose your card" to edit it. You can select text and background colors, then fill in some information such as your e-mail address, the recipient's address, the title of the card, and the message.
Overall Quality
These cards are meant to make you laugh.. And they do just that! If you're looking for a simple, lighthearted, and maybe politically incorrect card, these ones are great. There are so many serious, boring, generic cards online, so a lot of people would probably appreciate something a little upbeat and funny.
