Card Karma lets you create your own free ecards using Flickr photos, Youtube videos, or any image you want via Facebook upload, bookmarklet, or URL.

You can share your cards via Twitter with a short URL (kr.ma), post them to a Facebook wall, or simply email the link. It's all free and ad-free and you don't need an account to try it.

Happy Holidays!

Pardon my ignorance, but is it ok to use images that you do not own the rights to for this?

Thanks for asking. It's illegal to use images you don't own the rights to, so doing so is not allowed on Card Karma. Any images reported by users or discovered by admins to be stolen will be removed from the site (and will go missing in your cards!)

Love this little app. I think its ok because he only uses images with Free to Share licenses and then attributes the work to the original photographer.

ie this card http://kr.ma/h2

has an image that uses this license: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/deed.en_CA

Thanks! You got it - the Flickr images are pulled in via Flickr API and only CC-licensed images are made available.

I had a fun little exchange with a Flickr admin, so I'm even being more conservative than I need to be considering the site is non-commercial at the moment.
