You may think that your mailpiece is a "postcard," because it is a single sheet of paper. But to qualify for mailing at the First-Class Mail postcard price, it must be:
- Rectangular
- At least 3-1/2 inches high x 5 inches long x 0.007 inch thick
- No more than 4-1/4 inches high x 6 inches long x 0.016 inches thick <=== THIS IS WHAT WE ARE SHOOTING FOR!
If your mailpiece does not meet the dimensions above, then the Postal Service considers it a letter and letter-size postage is charged. With Standard Mail, there is a little more flexibility -- there is no separate (lower) price for postcards, so you don't have to worry about your postcard being too big -- because you're paying letter prices anyway. But make sure that your postcard is no larger than 6-1/8" x 11-1/2" x 1/4" thick. Mailpieces larger than any of those dimensions and you'll have to pay flats (large envelope) postage prices.
Here's what we want:
- Simple Designs -- perhaps a chakram and sword, chakram, sword, and a staff, chakram and sais, chakram, sais, and sword
- Funny -- think of a funny scene from the series and throw in a caption (that's witty and funny and keep it G-rated!)
Post your submissions here. This is not a contest to see who can design the best or whoever is the best will have their design used. Pretty much, if we think your design works we'll use it. If not, we'll use it for the other part of the thing were working on. Everyone is a winner. I want to have a couple of submissions by March 1 for our launch.
If you've followed my blog, then you already know what this is about!
