We've partnered up with One Penny Post to give you a free trial of our new feature - postcards of your BoD photos, sent worldwide from the comfort of your web browser... It's specially designed for the lazy person.
We all have aunts, uncles, friends and grandparents who don't really use the internet, and writing and sending postcards can take hours while you should be lying on the beach, or racing down snowy slopes, so now you can send any of your BallOfDirt.com photos as a real high-quality printed postcard!
And best of all, the postcard appears with your message in a variety of handwriting styles, and is posted worldwide for you within days!
