How to Send an Electronic Valentine's Day Card

Forgot to send a card? No sweat. Show your affection online by sending your sweetie an electronic valentine.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Electronic Greeting Cards
• Internet Access
• Computers

1. Go onto your favorite search engine - Google or Yahoo! - and search for "electronic valentine card."

2. Survey the wide range of electronic valentines available and decide whether you'd like to send one that's funny, sentimental, classic, animated or self-designed using your own photos, images and graphics.

3. Pick an amorous greeting that will appeal to the recipient and suit his or her computer capabilities. For instance, if he or she can't view animation or hear music, chose a greeting that's visually appealing or focuses primarily on the message you include.

4. Follow the directions for sending the e-card.

5. Include a meaningful message that shows how much you care about your love or friend. Don't be generic on this one, i.e. "Happy Valentine's Day, baby!" If you can tie your message to the image on the screen, all the more appropriate.

6. Be sure to preview the e-mail before sending to ensure the image, music and message appear as intended.

Tips & Warnings

• If you plan on uploading images for a self-designed e-valentine, choose a picture that reveals your love - a photo of the two of you that your valentine has never seen, an image of the vista where you first expressed your love for each other, a picture of the diamond ring you plan on giving her that evening.
• Before you choose a card, be sure you have the recipient's e-mail address readily available, since you obviously must include it before you can send.
