iStockphoto Free E-Card App, Discount Code and Images Giveaway

iStockphoto is launching a FREE e-card app on Facebook just in time for Valentine’s Day! The app will allow users to send great e-cards to family and friends for any occasion or holiday with the use of fantastic imagery.

iStockphoto Free E-card App on Facebook:

The iStock e-card App can be accessed on iStockphoto Facebook page. In a matter of seconds, a user can create, customize and personalize a card that can be posted to a friend’s wall or sent privately via Facebook message. With over 50 free images, illustrations and videos representing major holidays, celebrations and milestones, iStock’s e-card app makes it easy to customize an electronic greeting for virtually any occasion.  The iStock e-card app makes it easy to celebrate special occasions with something more meaningful than a simple comment or wall post.

iStock also announced the results of a survey it recently conducted on Facebook, which revealed the following:

· Environmentally conscious women are OK with e-cards over paper cards (even on Valentine’s Day)*

· Most women prefer Valentine’s Day gifts to e-cards *

· Most men find Valentine’s Day e-cards a fine substitute for paper cards, but say a naughty outfit can negate the need for either (shocker)

· For recipients aged 50-years and up, a handwritten card is more meaningful than an e-card in most cases*

* According to a panel of iStock relationship advisors, an e-card on Facebook is rarely an acceptable substitute for a traditional card when it comes to mothers or anyone over the age of 60. They also caution that the inappropriate use of an e-card with a sensitive spouse or significant other – particularly for birthdays, anniversaries or Valentine’s Day – can result in spending the night alone on the couch. In cases where a physical card is necessary, advisors recommend creating something unique using images procured from the iStockphoto website.

The iStock e-card App is available immediately. International versions of the Facebook app have been created in German, Italian, French, Japanese, Brazilian Portuguese and English. The application is free and available to anyone with a Facebook profile!

iStockPhoto Images:

iStockphoto offers easy, affordable inspiration with millions of vetted, royalty-free photos, illustrations, video, audio and Flash® files. iStockphoto started in 2000, and offers a pay-as-you-go credit pack to meet the needs of any project – ongoing or one-off.  Whether you have a big or small project for scrapbooking or a business you will find image solutions for any budget.
