Excellent use of familiar design.

No message? No image? No thanks.

You could just email support asking for an image of the card.

[Siecje → 3h8d]

I don't think there is an image on the postcard.

I emailed support and this is what they responded: It's a riff on the Yo app, except instead of sending "Yo" in a push notification to a friend, you can send a postcard! It looks like this in real life: http://photos-b.ak.instagram.com/hphotos-ak-xpf1/10471825_52...

You could just send an email with an image.
