Photos Into Stamps

New Service Turns Photos Into Postage Stamps

You don't have to be a dead president to make it onto a U.S. postage stamp. Your picture or even your dog can now be on an official U.S. postage stamp.

A new service from Postage.com allows users to create stamps with their own photos. Postage.com CEO Ken McBride said you can use a picture of just about anything or anyone -- within reason.

McBride anticipates the Photostamp service will be popular for holiday cards and invitations. A sheet of first class photo stamps costs about $17 -- or about twice the usual 37-cent stamp.

It's a cute idea - - but I think I spend too much on postage at .37 cents a stamp - - let alone double that. It could be fun to do though for special occasions.

Do you wanna be a stamp?
