For some reason, custom stamps just tickle my fancy. I guess it is because whenever I buy stamps, I end up with really ugly ones. This way I can make some nice ones with strange designs.

These would be good for holiday cards, birth announcements, wedding invitations, as well as sending a picture of you frowning and perhaps sticking out your tongue on the bills.

Can it be true? Personalized stamps? Sign me up.

Because it's the first time ever that I have a little bit of control over a government issued product!

Long live the US postal service.

Say Good Bye to the boring, old, "so 1900" postage stamp and say Hello to PhotoStamps. Replace the U.S Postal stamp catalog with your own personal Photo Album. (via -Nash)

Upload your photo(s) or image(s) and make your mark by turning them into real U.S. postage.

An absolutely fantastic and genial idea!!

PhotoStamps is a fantastic product from a company I used to work for. They came out with it after I left, but it's still very cool if you ever send paper mail to friends or family. I liked my sheet of real USPS stamps with my kids' picture on them so much I'm just keeping them for posterity and not using them.

As a disclaimer, I put many long hours into helping create PhotoStamps and still work on it today. PhotoStamps lets you buy real US postage with your own images. It arrives in sheets of twenty, and you can use it just like regular stamps. I use PhotoStamps with pictures of one or both of my sons on all of my personal correspondence. I have gotten lots of great comments, and I am very proud of the product. you can also get PhotoStamps with the logo of your favorite NFL team or many colleges.
