I just did a quick dig through the DB -- looks like ~60% are using that first stamp (or two, if they live outside the US) to mail something to themselves. The remaining ~40% either don't use those stamps at all or they send a letter to someone else.

As for the picture of the paper/envelope, (this is probably going to sound dumb) but I can't figure out how to take a decent shot without making the stuff look terrible. Any tips or thoughts on how to get past that?

The lack of picture is the only thing that stopped me trying it.

This is awesome feedback -- would you mind reaching out to me via email? (It's on my profile.)

I'd love to get an idea of where you think that picture ought to be and any other feedback you have.
