Image generator

ZetaPrints provides excellent image generation service based on vector-graphic templates. Designers can create collections of designs, including virtual cards. These cards can be viewed and customized using this plugin.

How it works

The plugin downloads an RSS feed with a list of card designs, shows previews and sends requests to ZetaPrints image generation API to insert user text in the templates. The finished card design is emailed to the intended recipient.

WordPress plugin

Our e-cards plugin for WordPress uses the Flash widget and does all the configuration of <object> for you, plus it actually sends the cards users make right from your site. Install the plugin, configure data feed, size, list of recipients, privacy settings and it's good to go.
