Turn Pictures into Postage
Or how about the other end of the spectrum: instead of $500 photos you can hang on the wall,
try 41 cents for a stamp the size of a postage stamp. Actually, it literally is a postage stamp. The
concept: upload your favorite photo, and Stamps.com then sends you a sheet of perfectly legal
U.S. postage stamps. So to test it out, I made a sheet of stamps using my orange tabby??™s face.
Just a few months later, though, the Postal Service asked Stamps.com to suspend the service. I
thought it was over forever, and I was glad to have acquired a sheet of personalized photo stamps
before it was too late.
Well, Stamps.com is back. You can make a sheet of twenty 41-cent stamps based on a
personal photo for about $22. And they??™re not the only game in town. You can also try www
.pictureitpostage.com, which offers essentially the same service for the same price.
Make a Holiday Scrapbook
One way to get more eyes on your photos is to actually print them. I??™ve become fond of scrapbook
tools that let you create a bound book of prints from your digital photos. And there??™s no shortage of
ways to create these books. Online photo printers like Shutterfly.com, snapfish.com, and ofoto.com
364 How to Do Everything: Digital Camera
all let you assemble hardcover and softcover photo books from your own photos for reasonable
prices (in the neighborhood of $30).
