Posterino

May 31st, 2009

Arnan bought a bunch of Mac apps in that promotions like 50% off in the whole package of some applications!
Because he didn’t want some of them, he gave me two!
One of those, is Posterino! What can I say about Posterino? Amazing! I stay focused on this like a child with his sweets!
So, I will make here a small explanation what Posterino is about!

You can make those posters with millions of photos to give to some special one :) Or just to print it and stick on the wall of your bedroom to remind those nice days and those nice people that make part of your life;
It has letters, postcards, posters and all in every relevant size I know ;)

It’s all about drag & drop your photos, and you can add a little stamp with the photo you want too!
I’m talking about photos because, I guess it’s what people most use! But remember you can use cute pics to give a special touch to your project!
You can also create text boxes, rotate every single image and every single text, edit with your favorite font, etc!

Aha! A sweet detail! You can create your own stamp! Yes that’s it, you can say it’s Santa’s letters without people knowing it’s you :o mmmm… or the Valentine angel saying to her/him you are the perfect match! Imagination has no limit!

Now is the funniest part! You can send the object you create by mail and save money and time, OR in another hand, you can send it by swiss post (international!) it’s about 2.99 eur or something like that, but doesn’t go with the stamp you created in Preferences menu!
But :( yes there’s always a “but” :( The Swiss Post is discontinuing it’s postcard service for small businesses. Therefore the “real postcard” interface implemented in Posterino will stop working on July 1st, 2009! :( yes…

If you want to use this little feature you must run :) Posterino

    Hello Catarina,

    lovely review and happy to see that you like Posterino :-)

    Here is one small correction: The customizable stamps go on emailed postcards only, not on the cards you can send via the Swiss Post.

    And speaking of Swiss Post, I’m sad that they close the service for us because this was a very nice little feature of Posterino.

    However, I keep my eyes open for a replacement service ;-)

    Cheers,
    Christoph

    Hi Christoph :D
    Nice to see you are so kind!

    In fact, the Swiss Post service was different and attractive to me! I love to send things to people in the traditional way :)

    I hope you can do it! It’s a nice project I would continue use of course.

    PS. post corrected :P thanks
